Anyone Resharpen Sapphire shanks?
I am asking this question because I met this lathe cutter the other day who was cutting lathes for Pabst Blue Ribbon. He was using a Vinyl Recorder and he told me that someone out in New York resharpens Sapphire shanks.
He said the person that does this service is on the Lathe trolls site but I forgot the person screen name.
He also mentioned something about a Facebook lathe cutters group but I am not about of Facebook so I can't access or search for that.
If anyone know of this person who does this service could you send me a website or email to contact them?
I am sure many people on here would like to know as well.

Re: Anyone Resharpen Sapphire shanks?
Thanks for the link.
I do not do embossing as i only do cutting with my lathe.
So i do not know if the embossing sapphires will work with normal lathe cutting.
I will contact the guy and see if he can help.
Thanks!

So i contacted Rich Flores in NY and he said he does not sharpen Sapphire Shanks for anyone.
Re: Anyone Resharpen Sapphire shanks?
I distribute Rich's embossig styli. But it seems you want cutting needles resharpened? Right now I don't know of anyone who does it, but Opcode has been talking about doing it soon.
