All-U-Need Upgrade // Hi-Tech Diamond Flat Lap Converted Into A Carpet Wheel!

I really think this is an upgrade to the machine that everyone should do, and the results shown here speak for themselves.
Doing this opens up the option to both polish larger rocks on the machine, and there is now the option to attach so many different types of discs that the possibilities for the machine seem endless.

[@oculusangelicus8978]

Good thinking, because you can load up various pieces of carpet with various grits of polish, because I'm like you, unless the surface is perfect, there is always room for improvement! Especially when it's my own work! SO yeah, and you might also want to try a piece of leather (suede) with a bit of uber high grit polish because leather is one thing that I use to finish off the edges of my knives when I'm sharpening them, with a bit of polishing compound rubbed into the leather, so you might be able to go to a leather processing plant or shop and ask them for a piece or three of off-cuts of leather that are big enough for your wheel, and then use whatever polish you want on them and see how it works for you, but don't use water on the leather, because leather does all kinds of bizarre things when it gets wet, or if you do, perhaps put some paper around it and press it between some pieces of wood with a couple of cinder blocks on top of it to prevent the leather from warping. or not, give it a try if you like, perhaps I'm not fully aware of how it will work. heck, even a nice bit of finishing Plywood would be a great base to velcro whatever to it, but just seal it first. there are thousands of options a person can resort to, in order to get the results they want.

[@mindseyeproductions8798]

I was in a glassblowing shop in their cold-working room; they had a 48" flat surface rotating disc, it had a trough ran around the parameter of the work area to collect the water and grit compound. A stationary bar ran out from the center out and connected to the apron shield; that bar could be used to "catch & hold" the work piece in one area stationary to flatten out the glass on the bottom-end as the disk rotated, a pile of grit-compound sat near the center area with a light drip of water to carry the grit outward. The work pieces could then just sit propped up against the stiff-arm and grind away under gravity for a few hours. On glass that hasn't been polished down further than the initial flattening; you can see the groove radius cut into the glass and probably from there calculate the circumference of the abrasive disk that was used; till this day never have seen a one that large.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

That sounds really cool, I would love to see something like that.

[@OzoneFineArtVentures]

This is like an epiphany! First, the velcro hack to create the myriad of possibilities for the flat lap has my head racing, can't wait to apply. Second, I've been wanting to do a carpet wheel and this is sooooooo much easier than creating a whole new machine for the studio. Great idea to do the comparison between the Hi-Tech cerium and carpet cerium and the proof is in the pudding. I like the idea to compare cork, canvas, different kinds of carpet (I'm wondering if wool berber would be superior), don't forget leather too. Great video, appreciate the time you took to try it and share it. Cheers to shop season!

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Thank you! I think this opens up a number of different options for what can be done with this machine. This will allow me to more easily test different types of polish and if I find something I really like then I can make it for my large slow speed buffer which I think is a better tool for the kind of big work I do. I would love to test out all of the things you mentioned here and see how they compare against each other.

Jarod, I haven’t committed to purchasing any tools to start cutting and polishing my rocks By watching your videos I can now make a educated decision on what I will need!

Great episode! I swear we have the same brain. 😮 I’ve made different types of materials to attach onto my flat lap and my grinder. Both with Velcro. I use my flat lap master lap and attach leather for turquoise, hard cotton wheel, felt wheel, and I’m missing another that I can’t think of at the moment. I’ve not done carpet yet. I’ll be watching you test different carpets, for sure. 🤘🤘🤘 Stay Crystal, Mari P.S. You may burn out your bearings using different materials on your master lap. I know from experience 🤦‍♀️

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

[@chickensticks749]

The plastic tops from those small plastic bins you buy like 5 for 10 bucks at walmart make fantastic splash guards and are easy to cut to shape, while being rigid.

[@chickensticks749]

[@socalrockhound]

Ok so how do you attach the Velcro to the master lap? Self adhesive or some type of glue. Did you have to cut it to size or did you find a round piece of Velcro. Sorry if I missed that in the video but I’m so going to do this.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I got them on Amazon, there's links in the description box to the items I got.

[@bentationfunkiloglio]

Definitely improved. I’ve recently started using the faux wool covers that stretch over car buffing machines. If something similar becomes a testing option for you, I’d be really interested in the results.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

What polishing compound are you using?

[@bentationfunkiloglio]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding I’m using cerium oxide. My arbor has a flat disc attachment that screws on the end of the drive shaft. Disc is same diameter as the expandable drum (6 in). I stretch the faux wool cover (purchased from Harbor Freight) over that attachment. Perfect, tight fit.

[@spetkovsek57]

I think the wheels are too wet. The best polish comes from friction. That's why leather works as well as it does. I noticed you didn't even mention using leather. Another factor is length of time. Did you time how long each half was in contact with the plates? It was a good comparison and I think your new design is a big improvement to the Hi-tech. Maybe they should talk with you about it and give credit where it's due (if you know what I mean). Another good video. Thanks for showing us something else that is well thought out and presented with data.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

There's so many different things that could be tested such as leather which could be used smooth side out or rough side out. I wasn't intentionally not mentioning it as there's many different things people suggest using but never show all the options side by side which I understand is hard for people do but we have a major problem in the lapidary world and that is all of the myopic opinions people pass off as objective facts. There is no shortage of people in rock clubs and on the internet using all the platforms such as KZbin, Facebook and TikTok saying things like "______ is the best and everything else is trash". These statements people make should have some evidence to back them up but what I have found is that they almost never do. Instead what I find is a lot of emotional and defensive people that get upset when someone is suggesting something different or presenting a different idea. For me personally I like testing things out that people say and sometimes its correct and sometimes its wrong. I don't know of anyone who has tested leather, felt, cork, carpet and balsa wood side by side with the same material on the same machine with the same polish and shared the results.

[@spetkovsek57]

@@CurrentlyRockhounding Agreed on the "my way is the only best way". I've seen some amazing results with Lapidarists using felt, carpet, and leather. Sometimes it's just a matter of "how good is good" for some people. I think you and I both like to get the best polish we can (unless I'm giving it away...) if it's for out personal collections. I think the subject could/should spawn a series of videos testing a bunch of the various options. Hmm.

[@DeeDeeDIY]

Yep, you can see the difference.

[@eanholt]

This video convinced me to go with the all u need for my grinding tool, and I'm happy with it. After your recent post showing how much the cerium oxide can do even without a perfect pre polish, I decided to smear some on the "tech 11" felt pad it came with and see how it goes. I used some eggs I had done on the drill press with diamond pads, and got a nice shine on them other than about one rough spot each where my prepolish just wasn't close enough. I found that the motor bogged down a bit, I wonder if the felt is a bit too high friction to put much pressure on, compared to your carpet setup. I'd love to see you compare the two at some point, but it was pretty quick and out of the box with their felt pad.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

Yeah if you are pushing so hard as to bog the motor down you might want to back off of it and just let the wheel do the work. I do need to get some felt to try and when I do I will for sure share my results.

[@leonalbert4319]

That is a awesome idea! for people who have a flat lap that is a game changer, i don`t have a flat lap, i get by with my 5" diamond infused sanding/polishing pads from amazon, the set came with a cotton polishing pad i use with cerium oxide, but this gives me some ideas for a carpet wheel that i can mount in mt drill press thanks Jared love what you do.

This is awesome. I'm new to doing anything with all the rocks I've collected over the years, but I've recently started processing through material and I'm having a blast (just tumbling atm but plan on getting a saw and flat lap soon). One of the questions I've had is if I can get decent results face polishing on a budget flat lap like this Hi-Tech. I think you've found a super creative way to increase the capabilities here, so I commend and thank you. I'm now wondering if could use the existing Hi-Tech discs and use a bolt to secure them below the working surface (like you did) to allow more working room for larger thundereggs and rocks exceeding 4". It would be a bummer to have something that's just a bit too big to polish. Do you think that's a possibility? I'm thinking I'll try it once I get the equipment.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I think that would need some more modifications but its not impossible.

[@rolintt]

I've had issues using carpet on my homemade flat lap but found that leather produces a stunning mirror finish on agates and silicates. (I also use a Velcro backing on a master) Keeping the leather the right amount of dampness is a trick for sure though. How about a leather vs carpet video???

[@kimdedominicis6893]

Interesting! Did you polish both for the same length of time? I didn’t catch it if you addressed that.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I didn't address it in the video. The amount of time on a stage when polishing doesn't matter as much as the removal of the scratches from the previous step. As example going from 180 to 220, at some point all the scratches from the 180 are gone and everything is just 220 so the amount of time can vary. As far as this goes the time doesn't matter since it both fully removed the scratches from the previous stage.

Trim saws have become so expensive that I can't even afford to buy one anymore... Why the hell does a plastic Hi Tech trim saw cost so much anyway? I hate how the lapidary industry price gouges us for stuff vs the tile cutting industry. I bet I will wake up one day and a plastic Hi Tech saw will be over $1000. There has to be an alternative.

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I think there is a lot to address here with this comment. I do like the idea of making a saw and it will happen someday. I agree that lapidary machines have became rather expensive relative to the rate at which incomes of people in general are raising. I can speak a little bit to why saws such as the one that Hi-Tech sells costs what it does. Warehouse, shipping department, customer service, insurance, employee payroll, being made in America, health care and much more. As for the lapidary industry vs the tile cutting industry I think you are not factoring the economy of scale. If lapidary machine were made by orders of 5000 in China and sold in Home Depot then they would all likely be priced the same but that's not the situation.
