Thread: How are diamond lapping plates(DMT,ATOMA,SHAPTON) made?

I do remember reading something about a ceramic or glass plate pressing them down but I'm not 100% where i read that.

Thanks for answering. Now that I think about it, it shouldn't be difficult
to keep them in place. I think by using something flat on top and pressing
the diamonds slightly down, the diamonds would be co-planar resulting
in a perfectly flat surface.

Interesting stuff.
