    I've always wanted to know if you have to 'condition' the DMT in any way before using it to lap hones with.
    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    Fair enough, Brighty83, my neighbour wants his machete sharpened so I suppose that would do.

    Nevermind....Just found a couple on SRD. Prices don't look that bad either. I just might have to look into that when I am able to see about getting them.
