Members Texita Posted March 4, 2012 Members Report Posted March 4, 2012 I have seen the wool burnisher that J Bianchi describes in his DVD. My question is Where do I find some small pieces of wool pad to cut the circles from? I dont want to buy a saddle pad but I dont mind buying some scraps. Thnaks Quote

Thnaks Actually you can get just as good, . . . if not better results with a WOOD burnisher. There are many ways of getting them, . . . but if you use John's basic idea of an electric motor, you can add the wood part on a shaft, . . . on an arbor, . . . or on a ball bearing shaft, . . . The key is to use hard wood, . . . sand it smooth (and I mean SMOOTH, type SMOOTH), . . . dress it with some bee's wax to finish the smoothing process. It will do every bit as well as the wool type, . . . I've had both. But, . . . if you have to have the wool, . . . you can buy a small piece from McMaster-Carr, . . . just Google that name, . . . find it in their on line catalog, . . . call em up, . . . give em your credit card info, . . . you'll be in business in about 48 hours. May God bless, Dwight Quote

Members joefarmer Posted March 4, 2012 Members Report Posted March 4, 2012 I bought this and it works good. You can get this at Harbor Freight Tools for $10.00 http://www.harborfreight.com/2-inch-lambs-wool-buffing-pad-kit-95993.html Quote
