I Finally Got My Beall Buffer - First Restore With It

[gray4lines]

Totally bitchin. The pipe looks great! Man, I hope I can get a garage or basement when we move... I want that

Thanks Greg & Gray.
@Greg...lol, I actually cleaned the bench for the pic. Usually I barely have enough room to do anything.
@Gray...If you can't tell from the pic, the bench is't that old. Just built it a few months ago in my new house. Took a long time to get it. I hope you get yours. I like having it in the garage, I open the garage for better light and fresh air. We don't have to many basements in Texas, water table is too high.

Nice setup and nice restoration on the GBD.

That turned out great. I think my stocking is going to have the 3 wheel mandrel in it this year.

Whoa. That's a big stocking.

Great restoration and great setup you have there. I love my beal polishing kit also!

As a wood turner I have been using the Beall system for quite a while now and do not know what I would do without it. It is invaluable and now that I have started collecting and restoring estate pipes it just makes the polishing process so much easier. Great set-up and a nice job on the pipe. Really made the grain pop! Keep up the good work.

Beautiful job on the restoration

Did you use tripoli as a beginning step? Followed by red rouge or white diamond? Carnauba wax at the end or another method?

@Allan
Yes. Three step process
1) Tripoli

2) White Diamond

3) Carnauba Wax

I love the set up and the results, Great job. Now I'd want to get a buffer station. It seems this hobby/addiction always has room for wanting more. Love your work!
