duh, but easier with optical flats

come to the issue: is s17 doing so ? this is not a discussion of theory, its about s17's offer to do lapping
and you ignored questions 1 and 2 ?? who is s17 ? and who is qualified to appraise him/his work ?

???I duno. I never said I did.

All I said is, youlle get better results lapping by hand than by machine.

Although, i supose he could send out a sample of his work to a qualified independant 3rd party, and they can test and verify it.

and I will in general contest that hand lapping IS superior to maching lapping for 1.5" copper squares

I know of ONE person whose hand is better, though doubtless there are many such in existance
all forum lappers are making points, shiny and pointed

are you good at lapping ?
want a $100 bet ?

Me?
I tried it once, way back when. On a Socket7 heat sink.
Didn't turn out that well, but then again I was working with a really crappy setup, and didnt spend much time on it.

When I got my first block(WW) i decided to lap it.
Spent 2 hours doing so and in the end was using 2000 grit paper...
Got a beautiful mirror reflection on it...
But after a few mounts and remounts of the block it is all scratched up again...
Am I going to spend the time to do that again... probably not...

sorry MH, you are in the line of fire

wth kiddies, are we still on the reflective finish bs ?
flat has no necessary relation to reflective (shiny)
and all the hand lapping does is make the point sharper (Steve at PolarFLO and N8 excepted)

MH - you have no idea whatsover as to how FLAT your wb bp was

I know i removed a lot of milling marks from the block...
i followed a tutorial on lapping that said to do it on a sheet of glass..
so i don't think it was made any worse
so after i was done lapping it must have been better...
but your right...how flat i don't have a clue...
