wonderful! I liked hearing about the equipment needed to do that sort of work, too. Looks great!

This what I use for contour polishing, and a bit of water. They do make a unit that uses air and hooks up to water. friend has one I may borrow come spring time. the diamond pads start out a 50 mesh and go up. I think there are 8 different mesh sizes. I like to finish with a polish pad using cerium oxide for a finial polish. The polish from just the diamond is good, but in my eyes not as good so i use either the large pad in photo or a 4" disk of felt and polish. the large pad in photo has 100%wool carpet to hold the polish slurry. works good. I used this system on the large golden root ball slice also.
