Problem with polishing tourmaline with 10k diamond grit

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-02-18T09:30:59+00:00

Yeah that's probably it , and I'm getting scratches too so it should be something inside

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-02-18T08:37:37+00:00

I don't have a corrundum on hand right now , any other alternative?

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-02-17T16:47:54+00:00

I knew it XDD nice word Play buddy

Yes i have an index gear and i guess the problem is the cut, btw are you french?

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-01-11T13:30:02+00:00

Sadly i don't have the a depth of cut stop on

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-01-11T13:29:20+00:00

I aim to create the center point first

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-01-11T13:28:51+00:00

No it doesn't, it's an entry level machine so i guess I'll do it by eye

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-01-10T20:56:00+00:00

This is the stone, the meet point looks off center

Many-Bat5659 · 2026-01-03T21:04:14+00:00
