Cranks are now SOLD and were posted this afternoon, 1st Class Recorded...

Flat bars also SOLD and will be sent to Wales tomorrow. I would have sent them to Belgium but the Royal Mail quoted telephone numbers. :evil:

Middleburn 36t chainring and flat bars were posted this morning 1st Class Recorded. They should get to there destination by the weekend if the Royal Mail pull their fingers out.

Anyone fancy the polished stem? It's lovely, super shiny and is guaranteed to boost your pulling power.

Polished stem sold on the Bay of E.

Will you be using a bench grinder or drill? Machine Mart do a great drill mounted kit for £10.56 which will ease you into the crazy world of polishing. Beware, it is very addictive. :roll:

Like I said... It is VERY addictive.

drill mounted here, no bench, and have already spent a lot of time with 1500 -2000 wetndry anmd not really got the results i wanted,

will that kit last a while or do the buffing wheels get claggy quickly?

The wheels last a fair amount of time but these medium felt wheels are a bit stiffer and cut quicker which speeds up things a bit.

Here are some little felt bobs for fiddly bits which are nice and cheap from Amazon.

Have a go with the Machine Mart kit first and see how you get on but those medium wheels from Amazon are great. The quickest way to a good job is to use the Amazon wheel with the brown compound, then to use the Machine Mart felt wheel with some green compound (available on ebay) Excess compound can be cleaned off with Peek metal polish on a soft cloth/duster. (eBay also)

If you have a workmate, use that to clamp your drill in place so you can use both hands to hold the thing you're polishing. Marigold rubber gloves are good too (pink ones are my personal favourites ) as the metal gets pretty hot and it's dirty work.

Basically, get the kit and get stuck in as you will work out your technique once you've done a couple of items.

Over and out...
