POWERTEC BF600 Bench Buffer Polisher, 6 Inch Buffing & Polishing Machine for Metal, Jewelry, Knives, Wood, Jade and Plastic

Love the quality and design of this equipment

It came with extra wheel. Works great polishing agates.

It's a buffer, what can you say other than it has plenty of power and it goes around in circles really fast.

The buffer itself works well. Use some practice pieces and make sure you pick up polishing compound because it's not included. You do need to bolt it down a bit, mine travels on my work bench.The stock buffers shed a LOT at first, before settling down after a few polishing sessions. Still sheds now and then but I should get a few more sessions out of it before I move onto an additional set I purchased (wider). Overall, fits my budget and gets the job done.

Needed a buffer to polish up old toy parts that the Dremel was just too small for. Chose this buffer and it came well packed with plastic over the shaft ends that had the nuts on them. There was a sealed packet with the spacers and cups. Very nice heavy unit. Attached the buffer wheel and polisher wheel. Spun right up, fairly quiet, with four rubber feet. I was very pleased that it stayed put and didn’t try to walk over the work bench. I already had the buffing material blocks. So I primed up the buffing wheel and got to work. Grey old tin pieces were up to a high luster in a short time. Be sure to choose the correct buffing and polishing material for your job. Red is jewelers ruge and is for use on softer metals like gold, silver, and copper. Green is used on steel, tin and iron.

This is a nicely made machine for the cost. Smooth and balanced operation!

OK, so I am happy with the quality, the smooth and quiet operation and it comes with a hard and soft buffing wheel. I purchased to buff stainless steel bolts on hunting rifles. I am pretty sure this is the same unit HF sells with about the same reviews.Well, went to buff my bolt and the wheel choaked down and almost stopped. Tried again, the same issue. I was really disappointed. Then I got an idea!I removed the wheel I was not using (soft wheel), the spacer, the two-disc, and the nut from the other side. Voila! Wow! What a difference. It screams! I had to hold my parts very tightly or they would be forced out of my hand. It was like a different buffer. Feels strong and capable of anything now, but still small and quiet and affordable. If you try this on yours, post an update. Mine went from night today and I just love it now. Try my trick on yours.

I needed a heavy duty buffer that could be modified so that the spin direction is away from me. You could do this by just turning a buffer around, but then the power switch is on the back. That could get annoying!This buffer is easy to modify so that the power switch is on the back side. Remove 4 screws that hold the rubber feet in place, then two screws that hold the metal base on to the buffer. In my case, I had to temporarily remove a large resistor (I think it's a resistor) which is attached to the inner base. After I reattached the base, I reorganized the ground and power wires so they were not twisted up and I reattached the resistor.I added a Sharpie note on the top side of the buffer reminding users that the spin direction has been modified.
