Ive gotten arbors from lowes that fit a 1/2 shaft, they were actuallly just sleeves with set screws to lock them to the moror shaft and to whatever you put in the other side whether it was 1/2" rod or say a carraige bolt long enough to go through the burnisher, they were only like 4.00

Bob, If you get a chance could you post a sample of Ellises, but just using the first tool, just for curiositys sake, also by having to buy two tools from him does the price come out to be about the same as Beards??
