GregB:

I've never been very good at sharpening scrappers. Appreciate the post, will give it a try.

Alvin the Terrible:
Thanks Bob.  I'll continue to use it as a frisbee for vacuum cleaner sales people.

Coo-wah-chobee:
  Ha-ha-ha-ha- frisbee ! Actually if you want to do the work-heat it up- let it cool down-cut it-heat it to cherry red-dip quickly in oil or water-sometimes water will warp it-put in oven for about 45-1 hr -then sharpen-volia!-bob

Alvin the Terrible:
My neighbor across the road has a band saw for steel.  Maybe I'll have him cut it into a couple shapes.  Doable?

Coo-wah-chobee:
  Att_you have to keep the heat down so you dont lose the temper. Doable / I think so-just cut very slow and oil the steel or keep wet with water if he dosent mind-makes a mess though. you can do yourself with a good hacksaw-just cut very slow so you dont raise heat -some is ok-alot is not.-bob
