This machine kinda just fell into my 'lap' recently.
 Lortone LU6X, combo unit.... older model I believe I have many questions as I know little about lapidary. It has a small trim saw and two vertical wheels. The large wheel is dual purpose... the side has a leather or leather-like pad for polishing, flap-lap style (except the leather disc/pad is vertical). The wheels are worn and may or may not need replacement. What kinda projects can I expect to tackle with this unit? Thanks.
