I sell the fantastic burnisher and have sold it all over the world with grate success. I have tryed to attached my pamphlet for added info but could not. You can see my burnisher on eBay under "fantastic Leather Edge Burnisher". If you have any questions please contact me. Thank You Ivan

All I want is everyone who uses my burnisher to have a good experience. I have had problems using water and noted that staring a grove makes it work better faster. Just trying to help. Not a rule just trying to help out fellow leather crafters. Thanks. Ivan

My new burnisher and motor is now on eBay. Thank You Ivan

Bree, I believe if you use my burnisher in your high speed buffer you will burn it where you touch it, the blended wax will not work as designed, and the burnisher may self destruct. If it does not come apart at 3600 RPM and then you run it at its designed speed the area you burned will not burnish anymore and you will not be happy. Believe me I have put 100's of hour's into this burnisher. If you follow my instructions nothing comes close to working like it does NOTHING. When you run it over 1750 RPM my burnisher will not last long and will not work. In about 2 weeks I will have my own motors, made in the USA, and sell you one for $59.99. I should have photos this weekend on the 2 different set ups. I will Email them to you if you would like. I ask that you reconsider running my burnisher over its design speed. Thank You Ivan

My last response was the first time I have ever replied to anything on this site. I should have given a better explanation. A buffer turns at 3600 RPM. That speed creates a lot of friction and will burn my burnisher. I'm not sure what it will do to your leather. I also make belts, 50 to 75 at a time. If you follow my instructions you should spend less then 5 minutes burnishing each belt. First edge both sides. If you like a darker edge color it. With my burnisher I started using colored "Sharpies" (it is faster). Then rub on some of the blended wax I sent with the burnisher along the edge. Chrome tanned leather uses more wax on the edge the veggie tanned. To get started faster with my burnisher (with it running) use the shaft of a small screwdriver to start a grove in the wheel. From time to time you need to press the wax into the wheel too. If you use too much way you will get a build up on your belt. It comes off with your thump. Please Email me if you have any questions. Thank You Ivan

My burnisher will work if you run it at 1750 RPM or less. The duffer you bought will work for sharpening tools or taking off the dye bloom if you buy your cloth wheels from Sears. I packaged your burnisher this am and is will ship today. For sanding the edgis I use the small bench belt sander Harbor Freight sells. Do not wet the edges, use my blended wax and your edges will look FANASTIC!!
