This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I'm always worried about that little bit of excess friction the burrs may produce and excessive wear on the wippen cushion. To remove the burr quickly I use a cup/cone shaped wire brush for the Dremel tool. Place the brush on top of the capstan and produce a wide circular motion with the Dremel tool. Goes fast, polish with your usual method.
