  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Found a shop!

Yeah, I probably will. Maybe not the orange ones with the diamond wheels. They run very smooth and quiet. But the buffer wants to go on walkabout! 😂 The Kalamazoo SM1 is kind of "extra", I'll use it somewhere because I love it so much. But my 1x30 machines will probably do the bulk of the work.
 
I have some overhead shop likes coming soon, and my vacuum for dust extraction needs to be setup. But I'm very very close! If the Spectrum tech gets the internet up for me I'll be ready to rock. Got my Square card reader, cash box, machines, etc. We'll see what I missed in a couple days!😂
 
Sounds like you have it covered! Be very careful with the buffer, I’ve had mine grab a knife from my hand and throw it, scared the heck out of me!

Yeah, they're scary! First thing I did is reversed the motor so they run away from me. To be honest I'm more of a belt guy so I expect the leather & felt belts will get used more than the buffer. The diamond coated wheels also run away from me and aren't very likely to catch. Eventually I'll probably build some guards over them for safety.
