Thread: Norton Out-of-the-Box

I've never tried that. But the stone definitely sucks as it gets flatter. If you try the upside down glass thing, just make sure you do it over something soft (just in case ... )

Probably better to stick with the pencil grid approach...

I'm lucky to have access to a large cast iron surface plate at work.

When i got my norton perfectly flat on the 8K side it stuck to the plate so hard that i had to push it off the edge to break the seal there was no way i was going to be able to pull it off the plate by lifting it up.

Ive read in these forums about others having a similar experience... so yes, with water it will definately stick to glass and not fall off upside down.
