Help! I Need A Clipper Blade Sharpener.
webtutor replied to webtutor's topic in Health / Nutrition / Grooming
Super speedy and is always on call to assist. I'm a groomer and have used several other people before Colin was recommended to me and I've never looked back. Re. moving thread, PM the mods. Clyde, thanks for the contact(Colin) I rang him last night, as I am so close to Moruya Heads which is only down the hill from Canberra, I am going down on Saturday morning to the local Moruya markets and popping out to his house to get the blade sharpened, with my new clippers. He said he will explain it to me over a cuppa of expresso coffee, and his wife is going to make lamingtons(as if my hips need the EXTRA), he said we will test them on his terrier before I leave, or he said if I posted them down it would take 2 days down, and 2 days back, so I think I will go see the ocean, and dip my toes, maybe fish n chips on lake Tuross, and get it right. Seems like a good plan, I will let you know how it goes. Woopy My blades are beautiful now. I went down to Colin's place had the cuppa & Lamoes,he took me down to his shed with his machines, I didn't realize that you need so many machines just to sharpen clipper blades,he has 3 machines, one does ceramic blades, and the other 2 do steel blades,after he sharpened them I tested them on his Cairne Terrier,I couldn't believe of how easy the blades worked,I told his wife I am going to marry him,she said you will give him back. It was worth the wait to go down to the coast. Never hessitate to send them to Colin he knows his stuff,all though it is over my head when he talks about tynes scissoring and stuff/tension with different speeds.. It must be the bleach (blonde) Thanks guys I owe you one,webtutor. -

Hi there, thank you for your reply, my clippers are brand new (Andis AG 2) my friend tried them as well and said the blades are not sharpened properly, she tried them on her dog, with my clippers and her Osters, then she showed me her new blades working on both clippers, they worked well. The only blades that don't work are the ones sharpened from t h a t rude person in Canberra. ;) I will contact the sharpener you recommended. I hope they are quick with there turn-around. The last guy took weeks for bad results. How do I get/ask them to change the location for this post? (webtutor) -
Hi there people, I am new to this, is there anyone who can direct me to a good reliable clipper blade sharpener? Preferably in NSW. NOT the ACT please. Been there done that. My hairy pooch needs to be trimmed,because of the heat. Before xmas I posted my blades to a firm in the ACT, and was not impressed, the blades would only drag through the coat, it was no good complaining, it only made me more cross with the firm, they blamed me, NOT HAPPY JAN ;) Thanks anyone.(webtutor)
