After that use a bit of type 600 sand paper to smoothen out the inner surface of the drill hole.If the discs wobble, please make sure that all support material is removed and that the discs are screwed tightly onto the tube.Legal & AcknowledgementsPipy Wendy is an registered name of Philip Poore.The heart embellishment is based on an icon made by Freepik from www.flaticon.com that is licensed under CC 3.0 BY
