I have a Qbic sff and in making my top just for an 120mm fan my saw I was using decided to make some really nice looking circles all over the top.
So it got me thinking some of you around here got to be in a place where you have the tools to make this sucker shine. I mean SHINE like a mirror :D

So if I happen to be right and there is a few of you out there how about hooking me up with a polish job??

LMK what you would charge to do this please. Looking to get it done asap.
Thanks in advance!
please bump if you would so I know some are reading this ;)

IIRC BigBadBiologist did this with a Shuttle SV24. You may want to PM him asking his methods.

Angle grinder with sanding/polishing attachment, a free afternoon and some loud music, maybe even a buffing wheel if you get really crazy with mirror requirements.

I understand what goes into it. I am mainly hoping for is some works for a place or owns one that does this stuff with the correct machines. This way they can bust it out in like 10 minutes instead of me having to buy everything to do it and take up a day.
