Use of a dremel for burnishing

[bizbeblu]

As has already been mentioned, the Foredom is really a must have tool for so many kinds of work. They mount up out of the way with a flex shaft and a grip in which whatever tool can be chucked. Speed is variable and controlled by a foot pedal. I do many things with it including burnishing. A hardwood shaped wheel and your secret sauce for finishing. The leatherburnisher guys make some beauties out of Cocobola. Best deals I've seen on Foredoms have been at Otto Frei and sometimes at Rio Grande supply in Albuquerque. Actually there are a number of excellent jewelers' tools (like for silversmiths) that work perfectly on leather.
