My problem is that the lapping plate just feels smooth moving across all grits under a trickle of water. It has been cleaned but just seems to be doing nothing.
So.....I have been looking into getting a DMT Dia-Flat lapping stone. Does anyone have this particular plate and if so how do you like it? Pro? Cons? What stones do you lap with it?
I know this lapping plate is fairly expensive with regards to lapping plates, but I would rather spend the money in the first place (or second place!) and get something solid that works, will last and is flat!
thanks!
