I'm kinda getting used to the new equipment and trying to regain a critical eye and forgotten muscle memory from not having done this in a short forever. That being said, this was my first ever attempt at a bolster and working with solder.
I discovered I really don't like brass, if you look at it cross-eyed it will scratch. Maybe try nickle next time.
Another pass with 600 grit and the buffing wheel and I hope this ones done. Critique welcome.IMG_20170608_173016.jpg
