cut with tile saw then in the vib for the 200 500 and finished off in the rotary for polish . Got a real good shine on the lot .

I'd have to call 150+ a bit more than "a few"! They look great. What do you do with them now?
And, what kinda vibe do you use? A "few" pieces in there are pretty good sized, ever have them break in the vibe?
ETA 'nuther question - why do you finish in a rotary? I do all stages in rotary barrels, but it seems most folks with a vibe go from rotary TO vibe, not the other way around. You go to rotary for the extra media?

Some i will wrap and the rest will go to the ever growing pile. I find the 15 lbs vib does not polish as well as the rotary . The vib gives a odd finsh on the top of the cabs ( maybe because they are flat). And I am not sure why my post is listed twice. Maybe the powers that be can fit it and remove one.
