I've been thinking about that. To be honest, I live in an apt. with a very small balcony. Polishing has become sort of an escape for me. Taking something so run-of-the-mill and making it absolutely beautiful. Tonight for example, I took one of the pieces from the previous picture, and started over. 220, 320,400,600,1000. Did the same thing I did before, but it looks better. Less swirl marks etc. If I used a drill, I'd have to use a vice to hold the part down, and I don't really have the room. Any other suggestions? I'm still saving for a buffer that's at least 2HP.

Thanks for your suggestion about the drill.
