Burnisher attachments

[aroh99]

Does anyone know where I can buy a burnisher attachment?  either to attach to a grinder or dremel tool.  I am looking for a quality attachment I wont have to constantly have to replace.  Thanks in advance.

I bought one on Amazon for cheap, fits in a Dremel, and seems to work well.

I bought a brass one from a Chinese seller on ebay

I have one for a dremel, but find the small arbor is easily bent and vibrates like the devil.

Or you could ask around your neighbourhood for a wood turner or a wood turning club and get them to make exactly what you want. That sort of thing is meat & drink to them, they'll love it

Second this, I use this a lot and it works really well if you’re going for a flatter edge rather than a fully rounded one. Does take a little breaking in, and sometimes it gets a bit clogged with wax and that’s a pain to get out of the smaller grooves. Then again maybe I should use less damn wax!

I purchased a Dremel type from www.proedgeburnishers.com

They make all variety of burnishers from Dremel size up to large sizes.

Chief Jason and Ed in Tx I have been looking at Pro Edge Burnishers and was wondering if you guys would mind sharing which burnishers you use for your various projects.  My apologies for high jacking your thread aroh99.
