    It can be put in a mold and poor into a a GIPS - Ri gips or plastificant de Paris it is caled in USA . The natural , and the fine hones qcrack very easily . I have a coticule that cracs during the lapping process . They have to be treated very carefuly .
    I think , that the Apachee hone looks amasing , almost sure ,that it works briliant . If you broke one buy another , you will use the broken as nagura or slury stones.
    Unfortunately those hones are not avaible here in EU .

    Yeah plaster is an interesting idea too. If I'm not mistaken it doesn't shrink as it dries so maybe it'd be safe to use on the stone

    Well I went ahead and attempted the fix. I used two part epoxy, let it set for at least a couple days then lapped it.
    I wanted to wait till I honed on it to re-post. The touch up went great so I'll call this one a success. Thanks for the tips!

    It looks great. I really like these stones and I'm happy that it worked out for you.
