I could certainly give some insight to Mr Murray's methods, although it would probably be better to read his book. That way you don't get mixed up between my words and his, because they could differ in areas, I'm sure.
Interesting that you've been to Mr Ed Fowler's sight! He is Friend and Mentor. He is one of very few, if not the only person I've seen Murray credit. I'm not sure why that is, but possibly because Mr Ed is very gracious and open minded, because their methods differ to the point of infinity.
I have virtually all the guided stuff, with an inch of dust on it. It's simply easier for me to use stones. I do use 2x72s to profile edges, and I've been known to use a fleet of 1x42 Kallys, and (my newest machine) a Gen III.
All you need to increase your productivity are the right stones. I can't recommend the 140 Atoma enough, for sharpening and lapping the rest of your stones.
