Parts I'm preping for 2 reel bodys that are with calfish. Get supplies from your local jewelry supply co. The Fabluster is super with a dremel tool. If you have to hand polish use this...Tokugawa wrote:Nice work! That is a dramatic improvement. Was that one of yours?
The gear teeth are what counts... the rest is for show/fun. I polish all contact surfaces and all major metal parts. When the wife saw the main gear polished, she wanted to wear it on a necklaceQuitLookinAtMyItos wrote:GREAT WORK!
Did you polish the gear teeth as well?
The dremel bits are from the jewelry supply place. They are sold by the piece from bulk bins. I get two sizes in med and soft. Around .50 to .75 each. They wear down in use. Usually 3 or 4 per reel depending. Note* If you use the Simichrome you need to clean after buffing, it leaves a protective film. I always do a final naptha clean after any buffing/polishing.Mossy Oak wrote:What are those dremel bits called?
I don't have a jewelry store near me so would these work? http://www.amazon.com/Dremel-403-Bristl ... 357&sr=8-6DougL58 wrote:The dremel bits are from the jewelry supply place.

Seems expensive for 1 brush. Also cannot tell what the brush material is or how firm it is. The bits I use are a natual fiber I believe in a med and a soft. If you want some polish bits and polish let me know and I can get some for you. Also the supplier may do mail order, I can check.Mossy Oak wrote:I don't have a jewelry store near me so would these work? http://www.amazon.com/Dremel-403-Bristl ... 357&sr=8-6
These are not wire brushes. They are a fiber material, may be natural or synthetic. I think they are a natural bristle.mike_honcho wrote:Are the dremel bits fine wire brushes? I have a bunch of them that came with my rotary tool kit but never used them because I thought they might leave marks on the gears. So they should be fine to use right.
Great Post by the way.
