Diasharp 3"x8" course bench "stone"

>The DMT 3"x8" course bench stone has impressed me this weekend. Previously I have used scary sharp to take the nicks out of plane blades or chisels, which takes a LONG time.
I was able to completely redo the bevel and remove all the nicks in under 8 minutes the first time I used the stone.
The real reason I bought it was to flatten a water stone flattening stone (there is an oxymoron). I had previously spent about an hour or more with sandpaper. The stone was devestating to wet dry paper, removing the adhesion to the paper in a mere minute of two.
With the new diamond stone, it was flat in about 2 minutes, and the back of the stone in about 3 mintues. who hoo..
Think I might buy the next grit up now too to help flatten plane irons.
