I almost made a move on this today but ultimately passed. I could use a dual-arbor motor. $40 shipped.

A critical piece of info I left out of the original post.
I use the stiff multi-stitch buffer pads for the hard shell super gloss finish. You can see the type of pad in the first picture. (Left side) For a semi-gloss finish, I use the fluffy pads.

Thanks to you all, and the OP that started it! This post/thread has been fabulously fascinating! And I am in awe of the skills, resourcefulness, ingenuity, and inventiveness of you guys!! I tend to be too frequently all thumbs in the shop, so your tales of adventure are downright inspiring! And now I know why my plasmatic 5000 dremel bench grinder keeps throwing my stummels against the wall and shattering them!! Who'da thunk you can't buff and polish at 60,000 rpm!! Now I know! Thanks again!! (just kidding about that last bit... I'm a klutz, but not THAT bad! Mostly.) Incidently, I went to print these pages... TWENTY SEVEN! So I thought copy/paste, keep an e-copy >>> 47 pages, requiring an excruciating amount of editing. Idea: you guys collaborate on a book in the same spirit and covering more of similar subjects and processes and ingenious solutions and hell, I'd buy it in a heart beat!! Betchya thousands of others would too!! In any case, keep it up!!! And thanks again! DIY never looked better!

Not sure how/if it works on Windows, but using Safari onna Mac, you can choose File->Save As->Web Archive and you get the whole enchilada without editing or wasting paper.
