This was so wholesome and informative. I wonder if you could suspend a thick piece of wire in maybe a deeper crucible for crystals to form on? Kind of like rock candy.
@gardeningsimplifiedАй бұрын
If you could that would really be awesome, but the way the crystals from as it cools would make it virtually impossible.

Thank you so much for explaining this so well! My last purchased wheels showed the belt just barely when I first bought it,and it hasn't lasted very long at all.I have six wheels in all-four that can be recoated.I just need to know what the name of the grit is when I buy it,because they list it as what grade of mesh they used to package it. Also=I wonder if a mold could be made to receive the remaining goo to make polishing tips.A cut nail could be used with the remainder for use with a dremel or foredom.

Hey Kinney, it's Sam Seth from Oregon. I was just fondly recalling the day we dug thundereggs at my Radford claim and thought I'd search your name. I'm glad to see you've made some educational videos. Please say hello to your wife for me. I hope to catch up with you all if I ever make it to Texas

Good to hear from you. We really enjoyed digging at your claim. My wife reminded me that we never received any photos of the big thunderegg that we from that day. If you're ever down this way stop by. I need to get back to making videos for this channel, but I've been busy with my other channel Gardening Simplified - Polve's Organic Farm.

How many carats of diamond powder do you use per wheel for 600 and 1200 grit?
@kinneypolve21006 ай бұрын
It depends on what size belt that you are recoating. It tells you in the video. 5 carats on a 6 inch and 10 - 15 carats on an 8 inch wheel.

It appears you are using same diamond grit on the 4 belts-how does that work? The epoxy/diamond mix is the same for each of the 4 belts-how can you now differentiate the 60 grit from the 1200? Aren't they now all 4 the same grit paper? Please explain
@gardeningsimplified Жыл бұрын
Diamond grits are all the same color. On the inside of the belts I write what grit they are, and I know what grit is in which position on my machine. If you have a problem remembering which grit is in which position on your machine, you can simply label your machine.
