Item Name: Covington - 8" Standard Diamond Maxi Lap 110V SKU: COV5071ML Description: The Covington 8" Standard Diamond Maxi Lap 110V is a powered lap-style grinding unit built for controlled, flat grinding and surface refinement work. It is designed to run 8 inch diamond laps, giving you a stable, repeatable working surface for shaping and smoothing glass components during coldworking. This style of machine is commonly chosen when you want consistent contact across a flat lap, predictable material removal, and clean transitions between grinding steps using different diamond laps. How it is used: In a lampworking or glass fabrication workflow, this type of maxi lap is used after the piece is fully cooled for coldworking operations such as flattening small bases, refining edges, and bringing surfaces into tolerance before moving to finer finishing steps. You run the glass against the rotating diamond lap with steady, even pressure, keeping the work supported and moving to avoid localized heat buildup. It is especially useful when you need a flat reference surface for assembly work, clean seating surfaces, or controlled shaping prior to polishing. Dimensions: Uses 8" laps Overall unit dimensions are not listed on the product page
