Veritas Water Stone Pond

Stone Pond Water Stone System: Store, Sharpen and Maintain with Confidence

The Stone Pond is a complete system for storing, using and maintaining water stones up to 12" long. Its twin-clamping system holds both coarse and fine stones at the same time, with quick-acting cam clamps that are fully adjustable for a firm, stable base during lapping. With space for three or more bench stones, your sharpening setup stays organised, clean and ready whenever you need it.

The safety-glass lapping plate is guaranteed flat enough to lap a stone to better than 0.001" per inch of stone length, giving you consistent, accurate edges session after session. Clamp hardware is built from stainless steel, anodised aluminium and glass-reinforced plastic, housed in a tough ABS case with high-friction non-slip pads. Ribs on the box bottom keep soaking stones clear of sludge, and the clamping and lapping system works equally well with oil stones.

Key Benefits

• Twin-clamping for coarse and fine: hold both stones at once and move through your grits without stopping to reset.
• Guaranteed-flat lapping plate: the safety-glass top laps stones to better than 0.001" per inch for repeatable, accurate edges.
• Organised, protected storage: keeps three or more bench stones tidy, clean and ready, with evaporation kept to a minimum.
• Durable, non-slip construction: stainless steel, anodised aluminium and glass-reinforced plastic hardware in a rigid ABS case that stays put on the bench.
• Compatible with oil stones: the clamping and lapping components work just as effectively with oil stones as water stones.
