Wow great work on black sapphire. Rotary or orbital machine?







Sorry I forgot to include a machine in the Process list. That was done w/ a PC...I went back and edited the original post
 
Wow - that car was so bad to begin with, it reminded me of the thread about that white car that was abused with brillo pads a few months ago. Great turn around!
