I see polished wheels from time to time (Al Reed does amazing things).
See the attached image below of a 6" cookie cutter (ATS wheel). These are cast wheels. How does one go about polishing these? I am assuming that they must first be sanded smooth with coarse, medium, fine, extra fine, extra extra extra fine sandpaper then polished, polished, and then polished some more. How is the wheel sanded? How does one keep the wheel looking flat/even on a curved surface? I have considered doing this but lack the knowledge of getting started. I realize that each wheel will take up excessive amounts of time, but I still would like to hear how it is done... Attached image(s)
