    Try the Atoma for a few laps, just short strokes. If there is no obvious high spot just go ahead & use it. As I said tho, the 1200 is not the tool for flattening an uneven stone. The 400 is a better choice.
    I probably don't need to tell you that as with honing, lapping is best done with a progression of grits if the stone is really uneven.

    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    With the little to no pressure needed on the 30K. hone. After you get it flat the first time, it should be good for a l o n g time! My 16K Shapton stays pretty flat.
