Sharpening Masterclass - A look back at the Shapton Glass Whetstones

Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC...

In this episode, Ben takes another look at the Shapton Glass Whetstones that he unboxed almost 6 months ago. Since then, these stones have been the only ones that Ben uses to sharpen his tools. How have they held up? Will Ben ever use another sharpening stone?

He also un-boxes another Shapton product, a Diamond Lapping Plate, and demonstrates how it is used to flatten the Shapton Whetstones.
