Hi everyone
I have yet to order my WEP and have a few question to help me pull the trigger.
1. I see Clay using the Shapton stones but do not see them in the stone accessories.
2. When is the attachment coming out for the smaller angles
3. Is there duty to be paid when shipping to Canada?
4. The ceramic stones top out at 1600, is that smooth enought to strop to get a mirror finish.
5. Does one use water with the ceramic stones or is it dry like the diamonds.
Thx
Kenny
I can help you with some of the questions:
-the Shaptons will be there soon but for the present, I believe that everyone is busy playing catch-up with the back-orders…first things first
-the low angle attachment is being made in the machine shop in Vermont and probably will be available sometime in the new year…I understand there are two models being developed
-I am not absolutely certain but I can’t remember having to pay duty on the rig. I am in Kitchener ON, where are you?
-The 1600 is enough to get a very passable mirror finish, but not as bright as the finish by the Chosera or Shapton stones
-no water is necessary to use the ceramics
I hope this helps.
All the best fellow Canadian
Leo
