Buffing Setup

dimanche 31 août 2014

I have managed to pick up this Buffing Spindle from a steel fabricator that was throwing it out. It was used to buff up stainless steel (you can see the remnants of a buffing wheel on the left hand end). To give an idea of size, the spindle is 1200mm long and 30mm diameter. Unfortunately I did not get the full stand or motor that went with it. A couple of questions that the forum might be able to help with:

1. What speed do you normally run these at? Bench grinders are normally 2800 RPM (I think) - is this the optimal speed for a buffing wheel?

2. What size motor?

3. Has anyone got any suggestions for the stand?

4. Any other things that I should consider (variable speed? reverse direction?).
