And since you are all in the answering mood, haha. How many of you have tried turning wood hats? With what kind of success? I'm interested, but am concerned about turning so thin (vibration the big problem here?) and having the wood dry and crack in mid-project. Should a hat be turned all in one session? Can one lengthen the available working time by spraying water on the hat-in-progress? Is green wood the best or can one use a partially dry blank? How about laminating some boards together into a basic hat and turning that? Thanks for any info.
