Welcome New Polisher!

Yes, around here I tend to anthropomorphize my tools. They work hard, after all, and are often as quirky as people, so why not give them a name?

Recently I acquired this 24" steel wheel polisher from Jenkyn Powell, a renowned stained glass artist located here in Salt Lake City.

As yet, it doesn't have a name, since I haven't used it long enough to get a feel for the personality. I'll keep you posted on that.

What that means for me in terms of capabilities; this tool will allow polishing of large surfaces to a perfectly flat finish. Also, beveling, faceting and some rudimentary carving. All very exciting for a glass artist.
