I'm in the market for a buffer. I have this old motor hooked up to a jointer that I have no use for. A while back I got the whole table (jointer, belt sander, and motor) for $100 off craigslist. Does this motor seem appropriate for use as a buffer? What all would need to be done? I'm no expert on workshop machinery, just learning as I go along.
The motor is a Peerless 1HP 1750RPM. It seems to run ok. Not sure exactly what the arbor is. My caliper wasn't giving me anything that looked right, though it was close to 3/4"
I was looking to put a couple of Combat Abrasives' 8" Airway polishing wheels on it for use in cleaning up blades and polishing handles.
Here are some pictures
