I have been thinking about getting a Beal Buffing System but have been waiting to find a 1750 rpm motor so I can make a designated system for buffing. Well I found a motor at a rummage sale for $10.00 (small gloat) with a switch and pulley on it and it works great so now I need to find (not sure what it’s called/mandrel?) a shaft so I can mount all 3 buffing wheels on it and have some space in between so I can get the piece being buffed polished up. Does anybody know a good place to buy a shaft with arbors on it to mount the 3 Beal polishing wheels? So that it can be mounted to a table top or board? Or even a way to make one that would work?
1. I don’t have a lathe and I don’t do bowels.
2. I am looking at maybe something 30’’ long so I can have room to work on the projects and not worried about hitting the other buffing wheels.
3. Also it will be mainly using for polishing small boxes.
Any ideas to get me from A to Z would be appreciated …
Thanks Richard
