    I should add that there are many ways to lap a hone, and this is only one.

    This is great thank you! Do you have any advice on how to round the edges?

    just angle the dmt and use it like a file to put a bevel on the edge. not much is needed, you don't have to round them off, just "break" the edge

    Instead of using running water, could one submerge both stones (lapping and hone) in a bucket of water to lap underwater? Do some people fill their bathtubs and lap all of their stones at once? Nice vid Jockey's. You look great!
