Rehabilitated or decapitated?

Stropping is the weakest part of my straight shaving routine. I have worked very hard to master it and to a large extent, have. Then after doing very well for a month or so ONE errant stroke causes the damage as pictured.
I have grown impatient with the pumice stone, because I don't think it even repairs nicks. For all the good it does me I might as well stick it in my ear.
So I had a wild hair today that I would get a Dremel with sandpaper attachment and that's what you see in the first picture. The second picture is after it was treated with Neatsfoot oil.
What drives me crazy beyond belief is that one hiccup and you will never have a perfectly flat strop again. And I am a compulsive hiccup artist.
The question is, will this strop as is do the job or do I have to replace the thing every &^%$ time this happens?
