Stone Pond

• The Veritas Stone Pond is a complete system to store, use and maintain water stones up to 12" (305mm) long
• Stones can be stored, ready for use, in a stand that also clamps them and provides a base for lapping
• The twin-clamping system holds both coarse and fine stones at the same time and the quick-acting cam clamps are fully adjustable
• There is ample space for three or more bench stones
• Stones are kept clean and evaporation is minimised
• The clamp hardware is built from stainless steel, anodised aluminium, and glass-reinforced plastic
• The tough, rigid ABS case has high-friction pads for non-slip use
• The lapping system is a glass plate, a sheet of PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive) backed plastic laminate, and 90 grit silicon carbide powder
• The safety-glass top is guaranteed to be flat enough to allow you to lap a stone to a flatness better than 0.001" per inch (0,03mm) of stone length
• You can put your coarse stone (800, 1000 or 1200 grit) in the water and leave your wooden-based finishing stone (4000, 6000 or 8000 grit) clamped on a bar
• For stones sitting in the water, ribs on the box bottom keep them clear of any sludge
• The clamping and lapping part of the system can be used equally effectively with oil stones
• This is a fast, clean, dependable system for use with all of your bench water stones
