    Sorry, but I think the Dia-Flat is unnecessary overkill for the SuperStones. The Dia-Flat is great for lapping any hones, but mainly in the hogging off part of the process. The main thing needed for the SuperStones is frequent gentle refreshing of the surface, and this can be done just fine with a DMT 325.

    Indeed, you are correct... the 120 grit plate IS overkill, but other than that, it's fine... a bit wasteful of the SS hones, but fine, none the less. As H has already purchased the DMT, there's no *need* for him to purchase the 325 right away.... down the road, sure.....
