I was out with SWMBO shopping and had a quick look in Aldi. There was a small grinder with flexible drive and thought it would make a perfect small buffer polisher and when j got it back home it would. I had to make a wheel spacer to take the narrow buffing wheel but it works perfect for me. And after polishing a a couple of stainless steel spoons got the approval.

Looks like LiDL have their version in the shops on Thursday 8 th.

Web page says 120 watt motor driving 75 mm (3" diameter by 20 mm (3/4" wide grinding and polishing wheels at 9,900 rpm off load. 1 m (3 ft) flexible drive shaft and 103 accessories for the flexi shaft such as sanding disks & drums, grinding points, baby wire brushes et al in a box. Box looks like wood.

All for £25. Daft!
