Tubs, looking at the photo, the HF machine appears to be a purpose made buffer having the extended shafts rather than a “re-labled” grinder. What speed (RPM) does it run? I don’t know what the recommended speed ( FPM – feet per minute) ) is for buffing, but I’m thinking that it is considerably slower than FPM for a grinding wheel. To achieve a slower FPM speed on a buff of any good diameter, will require a slower RPM motor that still had the power to pull a buff wheel… that can get to be an expensive motor.

I’ll do some research on proper FPM speed for buffing.
