    Diamond sawing.

    Slabman. Ok thanks, to dress a diamond blade is it the same method as dressing a grinding wheel? ie a light touch on each side ond a pass over the top edge?

    Diamond sawing.

    No. It is a mineral oil with a lot of use in the cosmetics industry but is a very fine oil similar to sewing machine oil.

    Diamond sawing.

    Tumbling Barrel

    Ok. Thanks, that is some food for thought, I reckon sides on a tyre would be necessary else over time all your lapping/grinding medium would eventually splash out. Easy to put sides on i think only need one side fixed and the other opening somehow?

    Tumbling Barrel
