How to build a very close shaving shaver?

Summary: There’s a great fashion in many countries about wearing a dotted style of beard (sorry I can’t really translate this, but this is the level below stubble). I don't want this.

When you use classic razors you get a beardless style, which is now completely old fashioned except in some asian factories where peoples are fired if they have a black dot on their face in the morning (in my own country the right to have beard in factories date from a massive strike in 1905).
So the industry, (Wilkinson and others) stop to produce shavers that produce that style of shaving.

This went so far that it’s no longer possible for people, in my country, to shave their heads to get shining skin style. (you even see a dotless area on people choosing that style because of hair loss). I never saw a shaved head without dots. Even in our army this is the case.

I tried various models and kind of blades, starting when I was 16 which is not so long ago, but I’m still unsatisfied with the length of my beard. I've even tried blades that were not build for shaving purposes. I certainly won’t go to methods used by women (things like hair removal, even if I want their result).

This is not about the method for shaving (I know this implies daily shaving). For common examples, I really find current beards of George cloney or Daniel Craig too long for me.

Since there’s no place to buy them, how to build my own shaver from scratch that would be able to achieve a beardless style? That is a razor which would be able to cut so short that it won’t leave black dots on my face.
