crystal glide wider stone needed???

Post by richie »

Its a goodie all right, I will be modifying it with a wider stone than the 115mm stone its got, so I can do my split boards. Anyone got experience with this? Anyone know of any good stones going for a good deal?

3 phase power going in too which will be handy for a lot of gear in future so is all for a good cause eh!

cheers, Rich
