....Forever!!!

To return to the original topic of the thread, I used my new 200 grit Red diamond stone today. Worked on a pair of Blizzard SL's, that I did not ski last year, and my MX88's using my fixed 87 degree edge guide.

It's much easier to use than a file as no directional issues and cleans up the edges very quickly. They were not bad to begin with, but were gleaming in a few passes. Files seem inexact after using the diamonds. Never really know when a file is getting dull. Diamonds cleanup quickly with a small brass brush.

Finished with a 400 grit diamond, now just need to wax and go ski. Dreaming about a quick 2 days next week in So. Vt. Bring on the hardpack!

Good find Gary!
