Members wlg190861 Posted November 8, 2014 Members Report Posted November 8, 2014 I am hoping someone could tell me,( I am doing a lot of work with latigo, making dog collars and belts ) when burnishing are you better off with a slower speed motor or a high speed motor? Right now I am using a slow speed motor, its a furnace blower motor, I think its 1700 rpm, What rpm motor works best. Is high speed better? I am using a cocobolo burnisher . Quote
Chief31794 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Posted November 8, 2014 I think 1700 should work fine, you don't want to get much faster than that you may burn some edges and you don't want too much slower or it won't be nearly as effective. I have mine at ~1750 and it works well. Chief Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"
