Not to steal this thread, but anyone have an inside track at Stew Mac (Brock?) - when is the new buffing system going to come out (besides "Summer")? OLF Group Buy?

BTW, Brock, which buffs do you use?

Filippo


I can check with them and see what they would cook up for us.

I am using the 14" Canton Flannel buffs. I double them up and gang two together.
