Thought i would bung this up as i came up with a nifty way of restoring and polishing round things like hubs, posts or as in this case a rotor
I was trying to find some way of holding the various parts of a rotor while i tidied them up. Sanding by hand can be a pain and its difficult to keep the grain running in a circular motion, especially if you want to try and preserve original machine marks as i did with this rotor. I have sandwiched things between two large penny washers before now but its not ideal and if they slip they can leave marks on the piece. After a little thought i found the perfect solution, Rubber bungs and door stops!
Both can be found with holes in the middle which you can drop on a bolt, cap with a nut and mount in a hand drill or pillar drill
In this pic i have an orange bung from a chemistry lab, a door stop and a bung from a wine making kit. All have a taper which make them perfect for gripping the work
Not totally finished but pleased with the progress from this:
To this.
The bungs can be found in any dimension and really make the job alot easier
