I just bought a Ghubaro and plan to have part of it made into a sphere,
obviously ;), and the rest will be cut into slices

I would like to polish the slices and was wondering if anyone has any
experience doing this.

I have a variety of belt sanders and palm sanders but I don't know what kind
of abrasive to use, is there a specific type for polishing "stone like"
material?

Of do I have to buy a machine like this one:

Any help would be appreciated.
