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

People that build Fire trucks do That to all the aluminum surfaces that aren't painted to hide the scratches caused by everyday bumps and scrapes from taking equipment in and out of the compartments. Of course they do it on a large larger scale and use angle ginders with a fine disk or scotchbrite pad. Same effect though.
