[QUOTE="vonG, post: 319356, member: 9242"] I'm not here to put you down or something, even if it sounds like that sometimes. I'm just giving you my opinions and maybe helping you seeing things in another way. Maybe it will help, maybe not. :) By one place I meant +-y axis. You can't go all the way from one side to the other on the lap, you will have directional problems on the facets. That's why I said only go half the way on the lap and only in one direction. But I think you will find out that later anyway. In my opinion it's 1600 well spent. Don't know how much it will or can throw off the precision on the faceting head though. Maybe your way with the sound is better. Damn those small things cost money, have you bought all bolts and t-nuts you will need now? What do you have left to draw now? [/QUOTE]
