Default [Mini-Log] Lapping alex98uk's TRUE Black [56k NO]
So Alex required someone with natural skill and talent to lap his precious new TRUE, so of course I was the only person fit to do it! []

Time for some pictures:



Hmm, tasty!







Now, looks flat and shiny here, but only time will tell, as stupidly I forgot to tell the folks to grab some razor blades. So while dad was getting some for me and I prepped so I could lap the blade for linearity, I got started.






240 grit, as there is the black nickel, then the stuff underneath to get off!



Black coating off!





After 2 sheets of 240 Grit!



Moar..



And moar...



Even moar...


The cat decided to steal my attention with some camera poses!







YOU HEARD OF KNOCKING DAWG?


Anyways:






Almost there...



Flat and no nickel, exactly what I like!



Part 2 to follow later on!
