Broken Stone

Post by MountainMan23 »

Hey all!
It's been quite a while since I've used this forum, but I seek advice again. I was lapping my Shapton Glass edge pro stones, and I dropped my 500 grit. One side of the stone broke off. Would I be able to glue the stone back to itself, and if so, what glue could be used?
Thanks!

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not going to get you!!

Short answer is that I've read about people doing this in other treads, but to get the best advice, you need to do what Grant says and upload some good pictures so that people have a very clear sense of how to suggest repair in detail for the type of break.

If it’s just a third of the stone or less I would suggest just adjusting your strokes and use it as is.
