Show us your Glendo lapper copy

It's coming along. Lots to do still but I think it's gonna be sweet. I'm going to put a stainless steel sheet on the platen. It will have a locking protractor pivot affair and locking knobs for the table angles.
1/2" register for the 8" diamond discs held by magnets.

I did something similar to what Richard posted. Arbor to hold the Glendo diamond wheels and chuck it in the lathe. Milled a block with the neg 5 degree angle. Then mounted that in an Aloris tool block as needed for the QCTP. Simple and fast.

"When I taught a class in Sweden I tool a Glendo 600 grit diamond wheel and we made an arbor and put that in the hosts lathe - used the gear head to slow the wheel. He made an aluminum block he set on the compound to get the blade to a neg 5 deg.'
