My skews still scare the hell out of me! I use them anyway. Say a little prayer each time.

You suck!!!

I have owned three PSI step centers, and every single one of them have had the center point seize in the "in" position. This is despite careful use and constantly lubricating it, I believe it to be a...

Not on one of my turnings, but I recently had to "force" a small wooden table to match a very dark stained chair that my wife insisted be used next to the table. I could not find a proper stain to...

I have a CBN wheel on my Tormek, PLUS CBN wheels on my regular dry grinder. I have a Tormek jig setup on the fine side of the dry grinder, and a Roborest on the course side. This, in my opinion, is...

They wash very well. But do not use fabric softener.

Once the solvent (water) has evaporated, WTF is no different from other poly finishes. Should be able to overcoat it with any oil finish.

the real question for me is... Why? If you wanted a sealer...

Call the Nova guys in Florida.

Cyanoacrylate and its cousins, methylmethacrylate (used to cement artificial joints in), and octylacrylate (used to seal skin in the field and during surgery), are all biologically inert once cured....

Agree with all those who have already weighed in. Here are my two cents' worth:

+1 for Doug Thompson Tools (also very much like the D-Way tools). Both these brands are better than ANY of the big...

Just my opinion, but...

A pot is deeper than widest point
Bowl depth is less than the widest point.

He's fallen over the event horizon folks!

Wonderful series of shapes! I REALLY like the last two!!!

I do finish the first few inches (as far as I can reach with my fingers). I also dump in shellac, pour out the excess, and let it dry.

Actually, turning green wood has been "in vogue" for a millennium or more. Turner of old, turned what was available. Most of it was likely green.

anyway,this is a good question.

I'm sure that...

Rudy is awesome, and a personal friend of mine. We are also fellow members of my local wood-turning club (Tricounty Wood Turners, Florida). Every time I see him, I learn something! He does love those...

You are certainly correct about price and quality but at least for me, the marginal difference in capability does not warrant the difference in price for this particular item.

i do not understand...

To start off, I must say that all the CBN wheels I have are from Dave at D-Way, and I've never had a regret.

lately though, I've learned of a new vendor with outstanding prices. Our turning club...

I'm sure that the sander you refer to would be excellent, but it would have to do a lot more than perform well as a turner's sander for me to spend 8-10 times what I need to spend to get a "good" one.

I would not be surprised to learn that the HF close quarters magnesium body drill is clone of the Klutch. I purchased the Klutch model over the HF one due to some negative reviews on The HF model,...

Originally I purchased a Neico from Amazon. It was okay, but it seemed heavy, and required a key to change out sanding mandrels. I have a holder for each grit of sandpaper (I use each one till it is...

I have both a Grex air powered orbital sander and a Klutch magnesium body close quarters drill.
i use the electric 90 percent of the time.

Tired of sawdust and chips in your socks and shoes? You can purchase some "shoe bibs" online from one of the big tool houses, or...
