Title: Finishing octagon to round barrels
Post by: billd on January 02, 2010, 02:55:18 AM

Which direction should the round part be polished, parallel to the bore or around the barrel?  I'm only going to 320 grit, not bright, for a fairly smooth brown.

Thanks,
Bill

Parallel to the bore...(lengthwise).
