Any tips or good links for doing this? (other than keep your fingers and face away from the stones and practice with an old wedge)

Wear rawhide leather work gloves and safety glasses. You can get practice iron and wedge heads from golfsmith or buy thrashed old clubs from Goodwill/Salvation Army. Go to Tom Wishon's website for basics. It's really not that hard to do. I just practiced a little before I tried it on my good wedges. Or just go on ebay and find a nice 60* Trinity Golf wedge. They are identical to eye 2 lob wedges (except those were 58* originally, I think). You can get up and down out of a ball washer with one of those.
