Mine is homemade based on this: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo...=8O5A6ON_bJU&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13297052640414
Works great, I use Plastix as the cleaner and wipe them down with an old tee shirt when I'm done. I have a set of 1992 arimith's that still look brand new.

The two best are the Diamond (comes in single and double platter) and the Ballstar machines. Word on the street is the Diamond is the best, but is the most expensive. The Ballstar isn't cheap either, about $300.
If you want to DIY on the cheap you can make your own, just go to youtube and search for billiard ball cleaner.

I just looked it up and it seems like an interesting machine. I like the 16 holes so you can do a whole set at once. Are the pads carpet material or more of a buffing type cotton pad? Are the pads machine washable? Is it relatively quiet? How does the machine tumble the balls so they are not just rotating on the same axis during the polish cycle?
Thanks.
polisher
I built mine off the diamonds i used a 1-1/2 baldor motor and the hole where you put the balls and the platter that spins are of axis .75 of an inch.
So the balls spin off axis .. does a great job only 8 at a time.15 mins and WOW there brand new. i got 250 in mine....

I also built mine from the YouTube video referred to by Deamondrew. It is titled "how to build a ball polisher". The address is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O5A6ON_bJU&feature=youtube_gdata_player.
I built this thing for like 20 bucks and it works great!! I have had it for a few years now. Only thing I had to replace was the polisher pad a few times. They are only a couple of bucks or so.
Give it a try!
