As I intimated in my first answer, you need more than a school/college machine shop to do this sort of high tolerance work.

Unless I'm mistaken, the first Gillettes were made of stamped steel at the beginning of the 20th century. while something that's +/- 5 Angstroms would be impressive, I'm guessing that's not the precision needed for it to work, maybe even for it to work well. But that leads me back to my original question. There's been talk of high tolerances, but what are they? I've seen the shave angle of 30deg thrown around for example. is that 29-31 deg? or 29.999-30.001? etc.
I realize a thread started to point out the absurdity of my razor probably wasn't the best place to ask, but it was worth a shot.

... but I didn't intend it in a mean nor a bad way.
I've always just been content to enjoy my fave razors without giving much thought to the design parameters involved
