Thread: Thuringian – Blue Belgian Whetstone combination Hone

That is awesome solution Peter.
I wonder if it would be possible to use a coticule as a backing stone. That might be more versatile or at least faster hone.

Excellent Peter. What adhesive did you use?
MIke

That's a special stone glue from the company Würth.

Just take my money!

Fantastic combination.

That would be my preference. The BBW being stout enough to reinforce a coticule, which is apparently soft/brittle, I wonder if the Thuringan is stout enough ? I'd bet that it is, considering that it does fine as a stand alone stone.

That's a beautiful stone.

A BBW works well too! Very consistent, if slowwwwww. I like that BBWs are harder than cotis even though coticules give me killer edges.

Thats realy usefull combo Very good progretion with 1k stone
1 K followed by BBW with slurry and thuringian at the end for finishing .
Exelent and thruely effective .

Very cool and adventurous . Is the thuri vintage ?

A great idea, and I'm sure it will be a very useful tool!

Beautiful job!! Are you taking orders yet??

Of course vintage material, there is no chance to reactivate one of the old mines or install a new quarry at the moment.

Sure - but only in same volume as in the old Escher catalogs mentioned: in dozens!
