Just finished this one and wanted to show it off because I don't think that I've ever gotten this good of a polish on Palm Root. A tip from a friend saying more time on the wheels and maybe the diamond paste on the buffer, I think. It begs one question, however. Can I do better? I don't know, but I'm going to try! Thanks for looking!

Wow! I'm learning quite a bit from this thread. I typically progress 1500-3000-15000 but I've not gone higher with any polishes with the harder material. I should get some other polishing compounds, I've got loads of those mini felt wheels for the dremel that I could use for the higher level buffing.

Be prepared for some hot fingers.
My fingers are always hot. I've got a TON of preforms I need to cut soon so if I still have fingernails by that time I'm sure I'll have the shiniest nails in my household.

miket - You really did fantastic justice to that old plant!! Gorgeous my friend!

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings
