[QUOTE="GallicProspector, post: 244039, member: 441"] I have a lap from Rough2Cut, a 600 sintered in 6 inch diameter. I can take it to full speed, no vibrations. At all! It cuts very well, has a smoother finish than my old 600 topper, when I am lazy I can go directly to polish on Quartz (but polish takes a bit longer - I still think the prepolish is worth it in terms of time) The dial indicator on the Hall barely moves up and down when I cut, it is my only lap like this (so it is the only true flat lap I have). The BATT I have from Gearlose is good for polish and prepolish, but is far from being so well balanced (I feel vibrations at full speed). Give a call to Anthony (Rough2cut), is laps are really worth it and cheaper than the one from Gearloose (once you add freight and duty). My latest creation, cut on the 600 sintered and then taken directly to polish on cerium (opal from Lightning Ridge): [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/441/1460954169_opal3.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
