try a Jnat or Thuringians slurry and you will see amazing results, since the Garnets ( coticule cutting agent ) particles are to hard to break down or very slow to break

i just bought a set of 9 natural slurry stones and starting testing them last week, i shall post my findings sone




the nakayama one is a really fine one, but you need to wait for results.

thanks

I have my eyes on couple of uniformed slabs listed on eBay, I will check with the sellers to see if one agrees to cut it for me since they are non-rectangular shaped... i shall post it here if i managed to get one.


thanks again JasperMan
