Flat Laps are used to grind and polish slabs or other flat surfaces such as crystals, geodes, and can be used for some cabs. The laps can be either vibrating or rotary. Vibrating laps use silicon carbide grit or polishing powders much the same way as tumblers. Simply place the flat surface face down on the lap add the grit and a little water and let the lap do its work. Weights are sometimes used to keep the work piece in contact with the lap, speeding up the process. Rotary flat laps are simply machines that rotate an abrasive disc, typically diamond. Used for crystals, cabs, or other work requiring a flat surface.
