- Okay, so the micrometers in the thumbnail are one of My absolute favorite tools, but this buffer is certainly one of My favorite tools for knife making and other things too, of course. If you are a knifemaker of any kind you should definitely consider getting one of these, it will change he way you think about knives and finishes, anyway, thanks for coming and have fun watching!

I picked up the Bauer 8in variable speed grinder and I’m actually impressed. I put on two wire wheels, course and fine.
Huh, I never thought of buying the grinder, it could be dual purpose then, which would be cool.
@@caleb-ray the variable speed is a great feature. you can buy an arbor extension if you need to push your wheels/work further away from the machine. On that note I actually swapped out the flanges(washers) and spacers, they are stamped steel and not balanced. Most hardware on these “cheaper” grinders are. You won’t notice it with a polishing wheel, but with wire wheels or stones you starts to pick up the vibrations from the runout. I picked up some machined aluminum hardware, nice and balanced and didn’t break the bank.
@6atlantis where did you get the hardware from?
Purchased one today OPEN BOX for $ 61.00 works awesome. I use 8in "scotchbrite" wheels made by 3m.
I need to get one of those "scotchbrite" wheels, everyone seems to love them!
hey man its been a while since ive seen you in my feed, keep up the great videos!
Working on it, I'm really busy now but I want to start posting again!
Left hand thread on left side tightens wheel as it turns.Not backwards.
It just feels backwards.
Thank you.
No worries!
The manual warns not to lift it by the shafts.
Hmm, didn't know that.
Subbed brother. Informative.👍🇺🇸
