At this moment I have $1.75 in my bank account. Maybe I will stop by my pro shop before they close today and see if they have any laying around that they will either give to me or sell to me for a buck or 2.

A little cheaper than what you found. Maybe try a plumber. Get some 4" PCV pipe and cut it a 1/2" thick.

I don't have a spinner yet either. I do mine by hand in the kitchen sink. The pads, cleaners and polishes are not that expensive if you but a little at a time. I bought the quart sizes, one at a time so it will last longer. The 4 ounce bottles are just annoying.

BTW, I clean my balls in warm water after rubbing Dawn into the covers. Let them soak for about 30 minutes then with slowly running water, I start sanding in the order the manufacturer suggests. I let them dry a full day before polishing. I out the polish on by hand and use a 6" automotive buffer ($10 at Advance Auto Parts) to buff them. I buff them until the polish is basically burnt in.

I think I will let my pro-shop do the sanding bit. I am pretty capable of doing the cleaning and polishing myself.
