ok well when i get back from iraq i plan to send my razors out to get honed but i do want to start honing myself, my questions are
1) what would be a good set up for honing, would i need more than the norton 4/8k stone?
2) from reading other posts i come to the conclusion that "lapping" is basically flattening the stone. how do you lap a stone?
3) any other info that will help would be greatly appreciated

thanks to all
dan
