    Thanks for the video glen!!! I'm a total geek watched the whole thing!! Partly because I wanted to see if you had said "at this point in time" (you didn't ) and because I wanted the info so thanks!!

    On the 4K, "it is what it is," while on the 8K you have to think outside the box a little bit because that is your finisher. On the Joseph Rodgers I sort of took it out there, report coming soon.

    I went ahead and posted it up anyway as there is still some good info in there and you can make out quite a bit still, plus it isn't like you can redo a "First" lapping

    ps: I don't think I said "At this point in time" at all during it

    "YEP! This is important stuff!"

    My wife couldn't understand me making it LOL she said "OK honey I get the Honing vids, sort of, but this, Really !!!"

    I tried to explain the whole JaNorton thing, I got the shaking head, and I know I heard the word "Geeks" under her breath as she walked away

    I am in, it sounds like a good back to basics exercise. I am using an old KB Extra razor. I used my trusty 4/8K to hone it this morning.
