Thread: Made For The Army

No Ed. You got it backwards! Put 2 layers on and wear em in (dmt, 1000) . Get the bevel started a bit that way. Change the top layer as as needed, but finish it out for the nice, clean 1000 with a decent -looking bevel with a worn, intact top layer of tape on the spine. As you rock and roll, you will wear the top tape thin in places and not in others to compensate for that wonky spine.You will be able to see the wear on the tape should be wider in places where the spine was worn little and less where it was worn more heavily if you kept constant and even pressure. This is because you have created a "straight" spine with the unevenly worn tape (at least a staighter one!). Then you have a, hopefully, path to a bevel and can add a 3rd layer with which to start. Hone away and change ONLY the top layer. HINT! Make the top layer longer so it is easier to replace without disturbing the bottom layers! Look at it as angles. If you take away a layer, you are starting over in a bad way as the edge shall not touch the hone. If you add one as you get things straight, you should succeed quickly as fresh steel is applied smoothly to the hone, without hindrance from the spine, nor old, wide bevels.
That! JMO
