I have the Caswell Flexible shaft grinder. It works incredibly well with the felt bobs.
However I am having some difficulty with the final polishing step with the red or blue compound. It cannot seem to get my piece, a gold plate 6 inches in diameter, to a good
even luster. Some area are whiter and others darker. As I work on the piece, the the darker and lighter areas move, so something is happening. I have tried both the felt bobs and the 2" shank wheel.
Anyone tried to get a great shine with the felt bob?
Maybe it just another case of the wrong tool for the job and I just have to break down and by a motor to drive a 6" canton flannel wheel for the perfect luster.
