Yeah! Some help w/ sanding!

What kind of stainless steel workbench did you get? I've been looking for
something very heat resistant to put on my saw horses.

The same friend also found me a small vise for my 'new' work bench, for
just a few bucks, at an old hardware store in the neighborhood! He may be
an ex-boyfriend but he's still handy to have around! After getting the
stainless steel workbench for $15 and now the Dremel and vise I would have
to say this has just been a good month for good deals! Makes the clay
'mistakes' easier to take!

A rock tumbler is next on my list as well! I've posted a message on our
local FreeCycle group but no replies yet!

I have a Dremel I got awhile ago for another project.
Hmm..........
It has some strange odds and sods tucked in the kit that came with it. I
must try to find the "Polymer Clay Burnishing Whatsit"
Or ask here.


lol But then you'll just get sent he

I like the idea of clamping the Dremel into a vise to free up both hands
and the suggestions for making buffing wheels... using everything from
sweatshirt material to blue jeans! Didn't manage to get any bits
today... hopefully tomorrow. I can't wait to start sanding, buffing etc!!!


(odds and sods... I haven't heard that one in many many years!)

Its a used 5' x 30" stainless steel restaurant prep table. Definitely
heat resistant, tough and really easy to clean.

My neighbor had a yard full of restaurant equipment that came and went
(sold) in a few days. He looked a bit frustrated one day moving this
last one around (to mow) so I sweet-talked my daughter into asking him
to make us a good deal! It came with a 12" deep upper unit, w/ 2
shelves, that attaches to rear of table top but unfortunately no
hardware for that... yet! The price was so low I gave him a
carnelian and silver bali necklace for his wife!!!

This is a really sturdy table with a lower shelf and I have to admit to
being a LOT more productive since getting it. I've attached my pasta
machine and small vice to it and its perfect! The only negative thing is
that it's only possible location is directly under an air conditioner...
when it is 'on' I hear nothing else! But maybe thats a good thing!
