I purchased this buffer online after I saw the pristine example of CraftMethods on instagram. I knew I had to have one. My goal is to rebuild and replace everything that needs attention and then repaint it to as close to original as I can.
I will be using this in the restoration of vintage motorcycles in my garage shop.
Here is the online photo that I purchased it by.

These were welded and brazed to the castings. Looks like there were many repairs made over time to the guards. Removing them revealed shallow divits in the casting where the welds were.
