    Buffing wheels for Handles?

    And after I posted all this, I didn't even think on how to attach the wheels to the motor! It has two 5/8" pegs I think that have slots for keys. Does that mean the buffing wheels will fit?

    Buffing wheels for Handles?

    What's the difference between white rouges and the green compound? I guess I have two sides to this motor so it could have two separate wheels at once. I find that the oil really really helps, so I have been doing it ever since, even on the stabilized woods. At least when I hand sand it.

    Buffing wheels for Handles?

    So I have an extra 1750rpm, 1/2hp. I want to use it for buffing handles. From what I understand there are lots of wheels and what not, but what I want is a wheel that allows me to put different buffing compounds on it and then buff the handle for a final super shiny finish! :biggrin: The plan...

    Nearly complete.

    I like it. I am not into doing the filing because I don't think I am good at it, but you sir are good. Keep it up. I would agree with the handles, round them off and make them comfy. My first handle looked similar.

    Hamons are pretty tricky. What was your HTing process? I would try vinegar over lemons. And I would just let the blade sit in it for a while and then check it ( I use a PVC pipe that is attached to a wooden stand by a big hose clamp). I have used vinegar and used like a dobber and rubbed the...

    Haha, Yeah I am stuck between the Weaver Maul and the Barry King Maul. I bet it is all preference. And the Tandy Leather one is like $89 so that is out of the question.

    Scale control in a kiln

    I have to ask what is ATP? And this is an interesting idea. I have heard and thought about using this but never got around to it. I am getting tired of scale though......Something I will have to try.

    Suggestions on a Maul

    You have to take everything with a grain of salt. I am pretty picky about my tools, some of them work out well when I make them and sometimes they don't and I have to spend the money for a good set. I have a poly mallet that I don't like so thats why I started looking at the mauls. I have...
