I assume the glass grinding maching could be used for grinding mibs and such maybe a little??

Hazarding a guess, they kind of look like optics grinders, like lenses.

i think your right.. that would be soft glass and no good yeah??

Depends on the medium used to grind. You would prob get more use out of a lap.
P.s posting here with auctions is a double edge sword.

yeah but to post this gear to the states would cost you guys more than its worth..
