There are synthetic ruby, not sure how well they work. Website stinks and the 90's are screaming for it back but take a look here http://eze-lap.com/products/

this company sells a variety of triangle stones.

I used them for a while for coarser edges,but in the end decided SM diamond rods or diamond bench stones worked better for me. They dish as you use them more than spyderco ceramic rods do, so they'd need dressed more often and replaced within a shorter time span.

Don't see them under the link but still, synthetic ruby is basically the same as alumina (spyderco ceramic)

Silicon Carbide is okay, wish they had a wider grit selection but I'll consider them, thanks :)

I just want a fully adjustable base. I have some simple ideas for how this can be made and I think eventually I'm going to get into 3D printing and make myself one.
Let me know I will buy one from you.

The start of a new company taking form?

:) :)
