Cheap Buffing Wheel Setup?
Not lookin for a fight Woods. Just not gonna walk away from one either. The MSM comment, stated bluntly, is that far too many folks have fallen into the habit of espousing half truths, not unlike the Main Stream Media. To your 1/3 comment. What you failed to mention is that 48% or so gave it 4...- bonanzadriver

Cheap Buffing Wheel Setup?
Say what you will Woods, your initial post, that I responded to, in no way reflected your later disclaimer. It quite looks like "Stomping". Your attempted justification to my response, is also less than forthright. The truth of the matter is that 37% of the folks that purchased it gave it 5...- bonanzadriver

Cheap Buffing Wheel Setup?
One last comment to the OP of this thread. If this is gonna be your first try at buffin, polishin and restorin briars, I'd recommend you start out on an old inexpensive basket/estate pipe. That way, if you do screw it up, you've really lost nothing of any great value. I started out on old no...- bonanzadriver

Cheap Buffing Wheel Setup?
Well woods, yer definitely entitled to your opinion. I disagree however. I've restored/refurbed over 60 briars with this setup without any issues from the buffer. The only damage to any pipe was when I lost my grip and it shot a stem across the room and broke off the tenon. No worries though...- bonanzadriver

Smoking Inside the House
folonator, thanks for that link on the exhaust fan. I believe it's a "Hyper" or something along those lines. Was developed for the folks in the "Grower" community to move air in their "grow" rooms. it is very powerfull, can move over 1,000 cfm and is very quiet. I will probably replace my...- bonanzadriver

Smoking Inside the House
Thanks for linking my mancave 3rdguy. Ben, when I was having an addition built onto my house, 11 or so years ago, I had it built with a home office in the attic space above the new media room and master bedroom addition. I had the builder put in an exhaust fan setup. It's a panasonic whisper...- bonanzadriver
