Default Scissors & Belt Sanders

I've always struggled with sharpening scissors. Yesterday after struggling
to shear one of our fluffy little yappy mutts I took a pair out to the shop
and very lightly dresses it on 1x30 belt sander. Just a couple light passes
and it was perfect. It now will slice through tissues paper hanging limp
leaving a perfectly cut edge. The dog saw me come back with scissors in one
hand and a gleam in my eye, and headed for points unknown...
