Is that a hone????
I have been trying to fix, restore, and frame a stained glass panel that my father made. While visiting a local stained glass shop I caught something out of the corner of my eye! That has to be a hone I said to myself!
Sure enough it was. A scythe hone. They are used for rounding off the edges of the glass.
I had to laugh at myself because in the midst of all this flashy stuff, the hones on a lower shelf out of the way stuck out like a sore thumb to me!
Do any of you have this same symptom of HAD?
I already have a few so I didn't buy one!

Man, I rub bits of busted hones on lots of things. Put it in a chuck and spin it.
Apply hone!
I use those dried-out barber's hones to dress my grinder's stone!Last edited by sharptonn; 11-10-2017 at 04:15 AM.

Thanked: 4826My quirk is finding them as nature presents them and taking them home, shaping and lapping them to see how well they work. It is quite addictive.
