Colton - I've done some small engine turning with a drill press and a pencil - use the eraser as the polisher - just a little down pressure and you have a circle mark - over lap them as you choose for a pattern. The smoother or more polished the part is to start with the better - I've also used a wood dowel rod - it holds up better than the eraser. Thats just the cheapo way I've done it to get the job done. -JK
