Hello my friends.

I picked up another vintage Rotary polisher off a local auction website the other day & it arrived in the mail today.

This thing is seriously heavy!!! Certainly no need for any downward pressure with this, in fact I would be a bit hesitant using this on a modern car with their increasingly “soft” body panels.

Here’s what I found out -

It’s a SHER Polisher. SHER was an Australian Power Tool Company founded by an Austrian immigrant Wilhelm Peter Schlesinger & Alexander Faill. They started off in 1940 as Red Point Tool Co & in 1957 changed its name to Sher Power Tools Pty Ltd until in 1962 when Skil Corporation took over.

So because it’s labeled as a SHER I’m guessing it’s between 1957 & 1962 in age. Researched a bit on line but came up empty in regards to a polisher of any type.

Anyway, here are the pictures, enjoy.


















Thank you all for taking a look ... oh yeah, yes it does indeed run.
