I just left my local glass shop with 3 3X8 inch 1/4 inch thick plate glass sheets for use in honing with lapping film. I've never used lapping film or honed a razor before.
So a few questions:
1. Where is a good place to buy the film?
2. How long does a sheet of film last?
3. What grades of film should I buy?
4. Do you have any pointers to get started?
5. The goal of this setup is to save money, will I get a fine edge if I go this direction?
Anything else you'd like to add, by all means. Thanks a bunch guys!
