Way to save a buck and create your own backing plate extension Matt!
While everyone is entitled to their opinion, lets keep this thread on track and leave the passive-aggressive comments to ourselves. There is no reason for personal attacks or demeaning comments towards others, direct or indirect, because we're all here to help each other out and provide new and fun ideas to make car care that much more enjoyable.

Nice Job Opie, I just made one myself a couple weeks ago but didn't post anything, used some 5/8" allthread from Menaards along with a coupler nut, spent like 5 bucks on it and then after measuring and cutting it to the right length, I used some Loctite on the threads and it works like a charm!
Way to go my man, thanks for the write up!

Any chance you have any of these left Dave? I wish I would have gotten one then. I would love to get one now, if possible.

Re: How-To: Make Your Own Rotary Backing Plate Extension!
Here is how they should be made to prevent any damage. Also by making them out of one piece it won't cause any additional vibration that can cause damage to the machine. Again, not saying anything is bad, just saying there are some dangers using something like this.
Also had a spot machined in to accept a wrench to tighten it.

Re: How-To: Make Your Own Rotary Backing Plate Extension!
Both of you have made very nice extensions. The solid piece one does look more of a finished item, the tightening slot is a very nice feature. But getting back to Matt’s design if you guys think for one minute it’s going to come apart from centrifugal force then you’re just nit picking his design. I could put that collar in my lathe and spin it a whole lot faster than the rotary could ever go and it won’t come apart. Also there is no way that a rotary will ever develop enough torque to break the bolt or collar.
