I agree, the buffing wheel is a very bad idea.
I think we need (another!) lapping article. N8 has lots of good info, but we need something that can be reproduced at home (or at least nearby!).

Kind of weird that this came up today. I have an old one page article on copper cold plate lapping that I put up exactly 3 years ago today. One the cold plates I was working on was for dual pelts for a slot 1 processor. It is somewhat dated considering what people are doing today and the pictures are not that clear since they are screen-caps from a camcorder. The info from that page was related to 'at home' techniques, since I only did that stuff at home back then. In fact, my whole site is pretty out of date. That's what happens when you have to work full time, have a family, and constantly have side projects (computer+household.) The web stuff isn't top priority anymore.
I have been thinking about a current article using both 'at home' methods and more advanced materials and equipment, but I haven't had much time with a 3 week old newborn at home.
I'll have to see what I can throw together.
Here is that old page for now:
