Pretty interesting. I almost enjoy looking At people's shops more than their pipes. What do you use the other 38 buffing wheels for?

I swap them in and out depending on the specific need (Big and wide, soft, fluffy, firm, compound type, etc). Hell, I've got five different wheels just dedicated to brown compound.

That was my original thought. But it seemed 10 buffs for each compound was too many! Then I realized some were actually disks. You keep refering to "we" , how many people work in your shop?

Just my wife and myself. However, I have found that we must keep at least 3 copies of everything to avoid us inevitably fighting over the same tools.
