[QUOTE="Dihusky, post: 407143, member: 10304"] Looking really interesting, cant wait to see the finished piece. As a total beginner (cutting my first stone today) I'd be very interested in learning what you do to prep your polishing laps? I have copper, typemetal and nickle laps and so far have done an initial prep on the copper with a bar of solvol but get the impression this is inadequate as it's holding very little of the 8000 which I have mixed with Sorbolene, we happened to have a large bottle of of it. A friend uses Vaseline intensive care which I want to try next as I am finding the Sorbolene is drying very quickly. Was planning on using the typemetal for 14,000 and the nickle of 50,000, right way round? Thanks SC [/QUOTE]
