Fixed

.65mm now. I am a little worried that when I lap the base its going to get paper thin.

is getting complicated

... sanding can kill you.

Try starting with 1000 grit. I know it sounds crazy but you'd be suprised how much you really can (or cant) remove.

**Waterlogged** · 07-20-2010, 11:47 PM

Anything over 800 grit is a waste of time and effort.

Except for a bit of bling factor perhaps

But yeah, go with 800 or so.

just make sure you give it a good flat surface test, all you have to do is look at the reflection off the base at something with square lines, like grid paper, and if the lines dont go strait, then you might not have good contact

It was lapped to 800. Sorry I dropped off the face of the earth.
