Especially if you are using to much force with the stone.Crystal and glass will collect in the tip of your striker,so remember to keep those clean as well.

One member suggested that the resale value will decrease, but if resale is not a factor then would there be any logic in starting a new spot on the call? Sent from my LG-D852 using Tapatalk

Sent from my LG-D852 using TapatalkThe only reasons to expand that spot is either you play in a manor that you need a larger playing area, or the more likely option for people is not having to look down at your call before playing everytime. To each their own it's a preference. I personally use just a small area and haven't had issues. I condition the ones I make initially with a stone then touch up with 220 or smaller sandpaper.
