Is there anyone that is currently smoothing out (radiusing maybe the most accurate term) the handles on the Sebenza like Matt Cucchiara used to do with his meltdown package?

Thanks Dave.
I did one side of a small classic about 2 years or so ago and traded it to someone....I saw they posted pics somewere when I did a seach on my name quite a while ago 
(I was bored).
I have a large regular that I gave the same treatment to....just take your time with some wet/dry paper and do it by hand. Just keep working your way around the scale to make sure you're keeping it even. Just kind of index where you are. I take it to the point where it's juuuuuust smoothed out so I don't start getting uneven. I keep it at about 500 grit.....then hit it with steel wool to get rid of some of the grain then hit it with 1200-200 grit paper to polish it up. It really isn't hard, anyone can do it, just takes care and patience. And strong fingers
