I have a thread somewhere on the system about the one I got. It works great on leather and it works great on wood. Quote Ride Safe!

Members CampbellRandall Posted May 1, 2009 Members Report Posted May 1, 2009 We just developed a bench top, variable speed burnishing machine last year. The sanding machines are the same basic principle, but you can only use it for sanding and the speed is fixed. The burnishing machines use interchangeable wheels, so not only can you grind/sand, but you can also switch to a leather/felt wheel for the final burnish. Its like a mini line finisher.

I have a thread somewhere on the system about the one I got. It works great on leather and it works great on wood. When the belt sanding module is in place, does it still oscilate? The reason I ask is because is occurred to me that this would be a great tool to run a burnishing wheel on if you could disable the oscilation function. Anyway, I think I'm going to try one....Thanks everybody! Bob Edited May 1, 2009 by hidepounder Quote

I was afraid you were going to tell me that.....I figured if the oscilation could be disabled, someone a lot smarter than me would have made a burisher out of it already! I still think I'm going to get one. Quote
