The wrap matches perfect with the carving. I need to polish a 3/8 inch hole and am stumped. Is Rio the name of a business or a manufacturer? It sounds like polishing rods and burrs would be what I need. Jim

the burrs I got from the Rock Peddler

www.rockpeddler.com/products.asp?cat=Carving+Tools&pg=3

and the small polishing rods from Rio. You need to get the little mandrels for them too.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
