Photos of heavy-duty hone lapping
Here's Adrspach and I lapping any number of hones. In the first one, Adrspach has a sanding belt sliced open and attached to a board on a backyard table. We needed all that room because the Charnely's are hard rocks and need a lot of love. He's using 80-120 grit belts.
I'm down on the steps with a granite plate and a stack of wet-dry paper from 240-2000 and I'm putting the final polish on them.
it's time to play Find the Pope in the Pizza...
ok gang.... who can find the hones!
Photo 1: There are four hones. If my memory serves we well (not always the case) there is a Rozsutec, a couple of Charnley's and another, either a TOS or a Thury.
Photo 2: Charnley Forest, prior to final polishing
Photo 3: four hones, probably CF, TOS, Thuries
Photo 4: three hones
Photo 5: five hones
...and a really sharp eye would find more. :)
