    good to make holding jigs for things,, from wood(holes in wood for
    posts, etc., while buffing whatever's soldered to it,,, good to hold
    rings with tapered wood dowels,,, don't let edges of things come into
    contact first,,, let the buff set down on a surface in the middle
    somewhere, and then go to the edge,, turn around and do the other
    half of the piece touching middle first,,, or go parallel to the
    edges,, never come onto an edge,, come off an edge,,, unless you're
    holding tight,,,,, good to hold piece more towards the underpart of
    the buff, instead of in front,, and even to keep hands planted on
    bench underfront, so you are moving your fingers and hands only,,
    not your arms(if sitting),,, or keep your hands steady and only move
    arms from the elbow(if standing),,, and while doing this,, make sure
    you pay close attention to the pressure you are exerting,,, know what
    you're doing, when you're touching,,,,,, possibly get a polishing
    hood to catch things,,,,, line the place where things hit, with
    cloth, carpet pieces,, foam, etc.,,,,, by the way you should have
    dust collector, either in your hood,, or if not right behind the
    wheel somewhere,,, and if not have a filtered mask on,, and of course
    glasses,, and shield somewhere between your face and the wheel,,,,,dp
