    I have a set of lightly used aluminum laps for sale if you want to come to Florida. Where are you located if you want them shipped? I have a rotating dual stand for them too.

    Jacqui, I use to have a complete set of AO cast iron laps years ago. Right now we use plastic laps. Wish I had a small set of cast iron to grind my glass.
