Shapton Glass 220, 320, 500, 4k, 10k, Shapton RS 3k, developed a pock-hole in the chamfer when lapping, had to widen the chamfer. Really annoying and not exactly confidence building.
What did you lap today?

Shapton pro 120 and stage 1 of a dan's blue/black
I'm a big fan of the Naniwa 5k pro.
I really like this suita, with its only real failing being in the rectilinearity department:
Well... not any more!
A pleasant 45 minutes with some 120 and 600 w/d on the back of an atoma.

Nothing, thankfully, yesterday and the day before it was arks.
Suehiro 10k
Shapton Glass 4k, 6k, 10k and hunk of black slate.
Started lapping a washita from an old norton SIB27 reversible. The india stone was missing, but the people over a Dan's where nice enough to cut me a blue/black to replace it. The washita is going to need a little more work before it ends up back in the wooden box.
Shapton pro 120 and 1k. Shapton glass 4k and a duel grit SiC stone that was glazed.
Vintage coticule
The coticule side had a bit of a dish and the BBW was a little convex. Both nice and flat now.

Naniwa 1k3k combo and some coticules.
Yesterday it was a new to me coticule.
Shapton 2k. Very happy with it.
Yesterday was Ark day again. Which also meant it was two-manhattan day instead of one-manhattan day. My first 3” wide Ark, really a treat to hone on.
Came well-conditioned by quite domed on one side. I left it alone and went after the back side, which is now quite flat for the center 6”. I can never seem to get it dead flat out to the very end.
May need a little more smoothing - we’ll see how the initial hone and shave works out.
