Very interesting writing in this thread! N8 and BillA, I have greatly enjoyed all of your respective posts and articles on the TI issue. Perhaps in the future one of you, or both perhaps could put together a comprehensive article on "lapping for dummies" (for lack of a better terminology) in which you could outline basic, intermediate, and advanced lapping techniques and show the differences in degree of flatness, interface quality, and physical effect on performance. I dunno, if I had a better knowledge base on the subject and $$ I might try to tackle something like it but I don't. I really think it would open a lot of people's eyes on this often overlooked subject.
