Thought I'd isolate the thread since it's kinda separate topic that people wanted to see. Left side 80 grit, right side following flat line and toward center 1000 grit. Total time 20to 25 seconds for this agate. When I'm back it would be easier if I find darker agate for photo Softer material takes less time..  |

Wow, nice job! It always amazes me how folks can get away with skipping stages.
I've seen trim saws before set up so true that the guy could em right from the saw to a 1200 lap and they'd be shiny!
Here i am having trouble getting rid of scratches from my 220 hard wheel lol!

Here i am having trouble getting rid of scratches from my 220 hard wheel lol! That was my issue so I swapped the 220 hard for 1k hard, never going back. 280 soft after 1k I've seen saws that leave a hard rock looking polished after but Noone knows what blade will do that |
