Thread: Argh, HAD is kicking in!

Allergies for one- my nasal passages are dripping

I've got a test for a new job coming up too, so we'll see how that goes

Pshaw! These things pale in comparison...

Nasal drip is a common symptom of HAD, by the way.

the sooner you buy the coticule the sooner you can focus on your test...

Ok, here's what I'm thinking of getting: D8E Continuous Diamond 1200 and the 4x1.2 coticule. I have a pasted paddle from Tony with .5 micron on it that I can finish with.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Those hones should compliment your Norton nicely. Do you have a Norton flattening stone? If not, I highly recommend the DMT 325 for lapping. It makes the whole process painless and neat. Plus it leaves a great surface on the Norton...

But I don't have a Norton

Oh, sorry about that.

In that case, these hones will give you great edges with some practice. You might want to get a cotigura rubbing stone, too, since you're not planning to get a Belgian blue. The cotigura will let you build a slurry on the coticule, which will help you get those 1200-grit scratches out faster.

I think you'll probably end up wanting the blue later, and ordering it now would save you on shipping...

Feed the HAD.
