Well, business is back to managing it self (read that as "slow") right now, the home repairs are finished or ignored, and SWMO says go out and turn something. Insert the issues from the threads about turners block here. So I actually get a day in the shop. I bought a small piece of Lignum Vitae (it might actually be the Argentina species) about a year ago, and I thought I might try a segmented piece with it. I have read threads here where the oiliness of the wood makes it hard to glue. So the question is what glue works best? Are there any good techniques to make joints stronger? Any other ideas to actually make this work? While I am at it, i suppose this thread should go as far as finishing ideas as well. So.... LV users, please speak up.
