Default grinder polishers

I found a "diamond max" grinder beveler for sale. I wondered if anyone knew will this work for making cabs and window beads?


Thanks

It'll work but you will have to get a series of finer grit disks up to a pad for cerium oxide if you want to go to a full polish.

Thank you Mr. Simmons. I am sort of worried about being able to get the pads I need. I am going to think on it some more.

The pads are available from almost all the distributors and most stained glass retail stores can order them. Delphi has them on line or I can get them for you. It is a great machine. I am actually beveling a cut off bevel this week for a repair. Taught beveling on it at GlassCraft for several years. So easy to use.
