I used a 3" table leg from lowes. Already had a screw in it that I used in my drill.

You all are awesome!

I was online just about to buy a burnisher for my dremel at $19.99+tax when a link for "$1 Dremel Burnisher" caught my eye (the link brought me to this forum).

I read this post, then unscrewed a wood knob from a dresser, sacrificed one of my many hole punches, which fit perfectly into the hole of the knob, then used Duco Cement to adhere the punch to the knob. Works fabulously in my mini bench press.

I had all the items here at home!

This forum and its wealth of information is priceless!

Got tired of using a hand slicker. Thought to myself what is made of wood, has a burnisher-like groove, and is concentrically constructed? Wooden cabinet pull. Just hammered a useless dremel bit into the pre-drilled hole and in about 30 second I had something that worked like a charm!

Good tip, Thanks. I have some type of wooden knob I sawed off of something in the past. Now I know why I saved it!!

Oh if only I had a drill press... And a shop full of other tools...

I did the same, both with the wooden and plastic slickers from Tandy. I keep two of each...one for dark dye and one for "natural" leather.
