I also just went and purchased pentacryl and polycryl . Lets see how this stuff works
I was just researching the same thing ...... I bought 3 full size ewt and I was blown away , So I bought 6 more :cool: worth it .
It appears that wood juice will work well for what I need .
I am wanting to harden them since they are known to be soft woods . I want them hardened so they will turn better and smoother .
I am all for easy wood tools I love my 3 full size I just ordered 3 hollowers and 3 mid size tools . All there stuff is made in america which is reason for the price increase and the tools are alot...
I picked up some mad rare wood today specifically a huge piece of natural edge redwood burl the size of a average adults head , and a 5in by 5 in by like 3.75 in deep rich colored piece of amboyna...
I sold that "Piece" a while back . I will just buy a smaller blader I am going to need a small one to do bowl rounding and bandsaw boxes . What size do you guys think ? I can picture the acrylic...
I haven't turned a acrylic pen blank since 2011 , I had a crappy 10'' craftsman band saw with a 1/2 blade and It worked pretty could . Now I have a monster 14'' rikon deluxe with and I bought a big ...
I am trying something new , I normally use super glue but I figured I would change it up . I used hut friction polish and use the beal buffing system with the tripoli white diamond and snakewood ....
With a regular cigar pen like this one the clips perfect because it bows outwards but the ultras are different .

I got bored today so I turned some things . I turned a ultra cigar pen out of amboyna burl , a keychain out of amboyna burl and a snakewood pen . The ultra cigar is turned the way it is because I put...
I bought a rikon 14'' deluxe bandsaw and a nice drill chuck for my lathe for drilling pens . I just need to wait and find a nice scroll saw on sale or something , I don't want a new cheap 100$ one or...
The monster is way to much of a " machine" for me I am not a traditional turner but it looks like a robot device . I like the jt turning trans former I will look into that .
I may have found a wicked deal on 3 ewt mid size hollowers so I will probably be getting them . I am trying to find a captive toolrest to use with them for the ultimate hollowing system .
I just purchased the sorby today because I wanted some nice hollowing tools and couldn't afford any more easy wood tools . I brought them home and watched a few demos and attempted to hollow and it...
Yeah I think I am going to get a dewalt scroll saw or excalibur and the rikon 14'' deluxe . I am going to just get a drill chuck for my tailstock of my lathe and use that to drill .
I can't have the rikon 18'' because its a 220v . I looked at the 14 in deluxe model and its 110v/220v what does that mean ?
Its still North American , So its American regardless if it wants to be or not lol
I am pretty sure I am getting the rikon 18" when it goes on sale next month for 999.99 it's a behemoth . Drill press I was looking at rikon and delta . The scroll saw I was looking at dewalt and...
Another reason I decided against it was , the fact I need a scroll saw , band saw, and drill press and that's going to cost 2k all together . Don't get me started on guitars I can go on for days , I...
I could buy more expensive stuff I am unsure about it though . Like a drill press for 400.00 is crazy IMO I can understand the reasoning behind the bandsaw and scroll saw prices though .
I have a delta 46-460 which is a great lathe honestly I would rather have a powermatic matic but for 630.00 I will be happy . I got word of a 18" 2hp rikon that all be going on sale soon for 1k I...
I am primarily a wood turner but I want to get into scrolling . I need a new band saw and drill press though because I sold my last year . I normally don't cheap out on equipment , I have a nice...
They would have given me a brand new one in box but I didn't want it because I didn't want it to be crappy either . Its delta's fault for running me around woodcraft didn't even have to swap out the...
