I'm not a turner, at all, but I saw this and can't see any reference to it on the forum, so I thought I'd add it:

I like it! Then again, I like old methods of doing things. The ingenuity intrigues me.
Nice find.

Interesting. Nor far removed from the old way of burnishing using a handful of shavings.

yeah but can you mount it in a drill chuck????

I'll bet a drill mounted version could be done....... :twisted:

Those jubilee clips would have to be replaced with something less lethal though.
