Oh there are plenty of options..
And i have a lot of uses for this tool, not just polishing paint.. i have a stainless steel keg that i'm converting to use as a brew pot for homebrews that I can polish up..

Heh. I'm going to bottle my current Pilsner (extract kit) this weekend, and then maybe start on a Leinenkugel clone with a co-worker (large batch, all grain recipe) in the near future.. I only have a few left of a belgian wheat that i brewed this fall. ..
We can save this discussion for an Off-Topic homebrew thread..

By going to the Craftsman site I was able to find it. Some parts are still available.
It looks as if the spindle is ˝-20. From reading the catalog, it appears that you can use a ˝” drill chuck on it. Why? Beyond my thinking.
So it looks like it was sold in the semi-early 60’s, not like the 50’s as I thought.
OT: Anyone wanting to remember WHAT Sears use to have, tale a look back on those older catalogs, it is great. history

Thanx for putting the manual up! That was one thing great about Craftsman stuff, a good manual. Showed all the parts etc.
Thanks Bill
Exact age doesn't matter as much, you know, 50's vs 60's... that's fine. when i get a moment to work I'll disassemble it, clean it, polish it, and (hopefully) photodocument the process.
Whether it gets used or not in the long run is irrelevant.. although since i mentioned to my homebrew buddies about using it to poilsh the kegs i have a line out the door! hah!
I'll be looking for stainless polishing advice in future threads...
