Walnut Burnisher

[leatherman1457]

Well had to make it. I have seen other people make them and I had to do it. the only differance is that i put a solid brass ferrule on it. Now I just need a worthy volunteer that is willing to to give me a personel review to see if these item will work. and one? and it needs to be someone that does edges and knows if it is good or bad.once I know if it is any good than i will start making them differens sizes and out of different woods.I will use cocobolo and bubinga woods. or a nice rosewood. I did it out of walnut because it was the first and If it did not come out I did not waste a piece of exotic that is a lot more expensive.. the shaft is 1/4 inch. and will fit on a standard drill. so let me know. I have tried it and i am very happy with it but I just need to see if it is a sellable object to all of you leatherworkers that is looking for a good tool. Gary

I'd be willing to try it. I anticipate making a bunch of dog collars for a charitable fundraiser starting this weekend.
