<div><font size="2" face="Arial">In the fall I plan to initiate a marketing campaign 
to the stone stores here in Austin Texas. My idea is to build a portable stone 
floor, maybe 6&#39; x 6&#39; or 8&#39; x 8&#39;.  I wanted the sales people in those stores 
to see a demo on what we can do with diamond encrusted pads.  I was 
thinking maybe travertine or marble.  I wanted to hone and polish for them 
in front of their very eyes, while they enjoy a lunch or breakfast at my 
expense.  This demo would take place in the warehouse area of these 
stores.  One question that I have for you would be &quot;Once that I have 
polished a stone, how could I get it back to a scratched/etched condition so 
that I could do it again at the next demo. Also, any suggestions that you would 
have for this type of endeavor would be greatly appreciated.</font></div>

  <div><br></div>General rule of thumb is the slower the epoxy cures the 
  stronger the bond. So go for a 7 hour cure epoxy such as the Bonstone 
  touchstone epoxy. if you can rod the pieces, thats what I would do.<br><br>

    halves of a broken marble table would be. These are massive pieces and I&#39;m 
    afraid that the polyester epoxy I normally use will just not hold under the 
    weight. The table will be supported by a metal 
    frame.<br>Thanks<br>Baird<br><br>_________________<br>From Baird
