Hags Report post Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) I have about $50 in this one. I bought the motor, a dual shaft Emerson Electric Manufacturing Company (God knows how old) for $10 at a garage sale. It had 2 Sears and Roebucks arbors on it, and several wheels, buffing and wire. I ran an ad on next-door for wood turners and gave the man one of the arbors and he turned the the burnisher for a $40 donation to one of the local charities. Works great and is dang near silent! The point on the end is great for belt slots etc.. I made the mount. Don't have anything on the left due to space. Edited July 16, 2023 by Hags Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dikman Report post Posted July 16, 2023 Both are neat solutions but Frodo's is obviously faster at burnishing because it's red! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
