Crowned Stones (No Satisfaction)
No, not the Knighting of Mick Jagger! I've noticed, just recently, whether I use sandpaper, or more currently, the DC8, I can't remove the grid from the ends of my hones. The middle gets nice and flat, but not the half inch or so from the top and bottom edge. I've got a feeling I'm pushing the slurry up under the ends as I flatten, which in turn reduces more stone there. If I do it under running water to wash away the stuff, well, no change. Can anyone "Start Me Up" in the right direction? Maybe I'm flattening too often, and need to actually hone more to wear away the middle!
