      Thanks for all the tips. A less useful, but perhaps amusing one, my shapton 120 stone conditioner ..

      noj replied to the thread thinning questions (yet another thread).
      As I mentioned above, the work involved several operations. I removed all the deep groves from somebody's course belt sander, a bird's...

      Thanks for the tips. Sorry for the lack of clarity; I suspect it was a combination on annoyance with the product, and my peculiar sense...
