polishing way tubes

FWIW, the 1 1/2" drum sanding mandrel fits thin wall 10ER tubes perfectly so it should fit MK V tubes since they are the same diameter and wall thickness.

Hey thanks John, I think I even have one of those around here somewhere.

By the way, the 10ER you rebuilt is probably the most stunning piece of restoration I have ever seen. I wish you would do one for me sometime!

You are welcome Tom.

Thanks for the kind words. I still have the main table top to finish and then it will be done. I wouldn't mind doing one for someone else but it would be tough logistically given where I live.

Hey I've always wanted to visit Utah. Do you have a guest room? Could we bang this out in a couple weeks?

Unfortunately no guest room. If all the new bearings and other new parts that might be needed were on hand you might be able to do it that fast. I don't think I would really want to try though.
