After 2 days of 15lbs pressing on my little 4.25" lap, the channels
have barely closed: time to redo the lap with softer pitch (not sure if the
wife'll let me use turpentine in the house).  Following Mr. Hunter's
advice, I put micronetting between the lap and mirror, and it pressed
completely into the middle of the lap, but on the outside edge, it is only
partially pressed into the pitch, so I have concluded that perhaps my
inability to correct the turned edge was due to a lack of lap contact in
the outer zones plus the fact that my lap was about 85% of the mirror
diameter.  I think I'll try to make the next one closer to the actual
mirror diameter.  I'll let you know if that fixes things.

Bound and determined to clean up that edge,
=Matt
