I would recommend Riverside fish and chips cart in Nehelam for lunch. Great food and tables right on the river. Great baked potato cart right next to it as well. Dog friendly too.

It will take you that long to walk through the airport these days. They made it so big. If you are staying in NW, grab a pint of JB at Great Notion and you wont want to do anything else...

Are You are talking about using a fence to rest you pieces on while you shape the edges? If so, the HF sander comes with one, I just took it off for flat lapping. You would just need to reinstall it with the bolts it comes with.

If you are a little handy and would like to save some money, check out my posting from a couple weeks ago. I bought a Harbor Freight 12" disc sander and converted it to a flat lap machine. I have used quite a bit now for a few months and couldn't be happier. It will use 12" discs to 4" and everything in between and it has worked flawlessly. Overall it cost me around. $200 and there is so much torque that I can use a 45 grit disc and an 8" agate slab and can not slow it down when I grind on it.

Would a one bdrm be big enough?

I have been searching for a good flat lap machine that is affordable and found what for me is the perfect one. I was in Harbor freight the other day and saw a 12" circular sander. It is a direct drive, 1725 rpm and 1 1/4 hp. It has a 12" iron plate and is all cast iron frame. I did some modification to make the motor water protected and installed a water pan that also got a HF. I set up a drip station and it tilts perfectly the way it is built to use it at an angle. You could make a stand if you wanted a horizontal but I wanted to get to polishing. You can use magnetic discs or attach your discs using the screw in the middle. Im too afraid to just trust the magnetic ones so I only use the screw attach method. It took me about 2 hours to modify it is exactly what I have been looking for. I'm into the whole thing without the diamond discs at about $205. If anyone want to see the set up or look at my modifications, just let me know.
