[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 111943, member: 2976"] Thanks Mike. I have papers at home up to 2000, I'll return it to the 600 or 800 and work up and see how it goes. I'm still using paper discs on laps I cut from high-density foam rubber on an old Hall junior faceting machine but I'm shortly buying a cabbing machine. The one I was looking at is a Cabking 6V3, a 6-wheel set up with 80 and 220 metal bonded diamond grinding wheels and 280, 600, 1200 and 3000 resin bonded diamond wheels. Do you know anything - good or bad - about this machine? I've heard that the brand new resin bonded wheels can have a tendency to leave deep scratches until they have been well worn in, especially above 3000. [/QUOTE]
