Great Product (21/12/2010)

Works great, I just ran a long bolt though it to fabricate an an arbor and chucked it up in my drill press and it does a fantastic job as a carding wheel. Very nicely made for the money and perfect for the job.

Great Item for Rust Blueing (21/03/2011)

I used this to card my double shotgun barrels after rust bluing. Brush has a 1/4 arbor hole, so I just put a long bolt on it and chucked it up in the drill press at about 500 rpm. Really cuts down on time and leaves a great finish. This is baby soft. Almost impossible to overpolish.

If you're rust bluing on the cheap - this is the one thing worth splurging on.

Essential for Slow Rust Blueing (01/04/2011)

The bristles on this wheel are so fine they feel like a paint brush. It is perfect for carding the soft oxidation formed from the boiling steps of original Slow Rust Blueing. I set mine up in a drill press so I can have lots of room to move around and a slow speed that's impossible with a buffer or grinder motor. It works beautifully.

This makes "Slow Rust Blueing" a little (04/12/2011)

I slow rust blue all my projects. This product speeds it up some. It is very soft and does a great job of carding and leaving a very even finish. Highly recommend this product!!!!

This is the carding wheel to buy for great results. The finish it produces is beautiful!

Perfect, Thanks Brownells (08/05/2018)

I use this everyday with Pilkingtons. Well made, perfect for rust bluing and it doesn't' cost a ton. Run it slow, high speed buffer/grinder will ruin it and your work.

I didn't want to put it in my drill press because i wanted a vertical spin not horizontal which is more comfortable for me and works better for long guns. So I put a long bolt through it, chucked in a 3/8 drill, and clamped the drill in a vice. A wire tie on the trigger to give the speed I want and I have made a couple thousand dollars with it. Buying another one right now.

Works great for rust bluing (02/01/2011)

My first attempt at rust bluing involved an 1895 Colt New Navy revolver. This carding wheel turned the rough black finish that emerged from the rusting and boiling steps into a beautiful finish. The wire bristles are tough enough to remove the rough black, but soft enough to polish without scratching.
