Beautiful! Nice to see the different stages of work in the first one. Out of interest, which flat lap model do you have? I'd like to get one some day.
Thank you Alan i use a vertical type flat lap with magnetic disk so i can put any brand aslong it is metal on it
but it is a lot of work grinding and polishing lol!!
Here are some coldworked dragon eggs from last week :)
