Holy thread revival
Funny thing is that I DID in-fact buy a bench grinder/buffer. I live in an apt. and there's no real way to run one without making a mess. Since then I've polished a valve cover, but to tell you the truth, unless you're gonna show the car, polishing shit isn't worth the upkeep.
As for using the dremel, I was doing this to pass the time. My gf and I were going through some rough times back then, and I needed something positive to do. Thought I'd make some dull things shinny :hs:
