Tom,

You need a 6" bench grinder and some cotton buffing wheels and a selection
on buffing compound sticks.   This is available from you local Sears
Craftsman store.    The Eastwood stuff is about 4 times more expense.

If you can pop for it get the stand.  You need lots of clearance around the
wheel for bigger parts.
