thats certainly a different way of achieving a, what has to be said, good result IMO!!

A slip of the fingers and it could be nasty though!!

No different to polishing things on a lathe though. Just pikier

apparently using a block of wood is good as you won't lose a finger the downside is that the wood could speer you through the gut

Slip and lose a finger tho...lol Did a good job tho.

depends which way you work on the wheel to the damage inflicted by slipping go with the wheel get a slapped finger, go against and get a shattered finger hmmm, i think i'll take not polishing them tbh

looks good to me , and its survival of the fittest , anyone who is too stupid to be carefull will lose a finger for their troubles

Pure genious they way he has done it though, and it's brought life back into some old rims

If you look at the risk Vs reward ratio......

I'd much rather pay someone £35 a wheel and get them polished by a pro.

£140 or risk loosing a few fingers? hmm.....

Jasovanooo · 13-11-2008, 15:58
