Locost Polishing Wheel
I simply haven't got enough tools....
So with a five quid motor from the council recycling tip, bit of plate & box section that were lying around,
and a stitched rag mop, the expensive bit....
I now have a polisher. Smart Eh?

He won't. You may see him wandering about with a work bench under his arm though!

OK, so it has it's limitations.
That's the boot lid on the bench after just six hours polishing.
Another month and it'll be super shiny.
Front mudguards, rear wheel arches, this time next year they'll all be done.
Shinier than an office workers trousers.

Blimey, you may even get to drive it as some point!

Isn't that just gorgeous? Power with style.
Seeing that has just doubled the value of my car.
Thanks Bob.

Neat - but I wouldn't want to be near it when the clamps holding it to the workbench vibrated loose and the wheel gained traction wherever it
fell - could be nasty especialy if aimed at the crotch
