    Mine are useless too. It'd be great if you could get them re-finished.
    As it is I use them occasionally as a flat surface for lapping with paper. That's my version of recycling!

    You could call Dia Sharp on the phone and ask. My guess is that it wouldn't be cost effective for them to do it.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Question

    Maybe they will agree to recondition yours or take your old ones in trade for a new one.

    Give it a try. All they can do is say no.

    It does seem like a shame. It's a BIG lump of nickel-alloy... if nothing else, might a scrap yard take it?

    You should see what a Charnley Forest will do to a DMT, I watched Sham rinse his diamonds right off the DMT and down the drain, it was a terrible thing at the time but I cant help but to laugh now! Forgive me Sham!

    I got it! Was going to make a hone box to store all my hones. The lid would act as a base for the hones with simple blocks on both sides of top.
    The DMT could fit right in there and can fold sandpaper, its weight and pressure of using it would lock sandpaper even tighter.
