a picture may be worth a thousand words, but not that one

how did your lapping lessons come out ?
a picture of the fringes will suffice

but wait, let me guess
-> it had a pretty fair hump in the center (or thereabouts)
I know this because I too am expert at making humps - as is everyone else doing it by hand

sooo, I have started to build a DIY lapping machine
off eBay

it has a 5" diamond lap, but no problemo -> 8" here we come

note that while this approach may work out ok for me in a lab setting,
for production it would be about worthless

Swiftech has a custom manufactured 42 inch diameter Lapmaster
(Neo - you really should stop your twaddle about "first rate" this or that, you do not have a clue about what is being done by the 'big boys')
