Greetings to everyone, I have been a longtime lurker that may have submitted one or two photos of my work. I have been away from my lathe for quite a while. I had been getting ready to sell my house and buy a new one. If anyone tries to tell you how easy and nice it is to move into a "Brand new" home call them a liar....lol I purchased a new lathe last year at this time when Jet had their big sale, and finally got to use it recently. I sucessfully created a bowl, but wanted to see if I could fix some tearout. I broke out my bottle of CA, cleared the tip the started to rub some dust into the bad spots. I ran some CA into the bad spot then rubbed more dust in, This is where I started to grow as a woodturner. For some reason the CA stopped flowing like it had previously. I made the typical mistake of thinking if I got my snout closer to the bowl and CA I would be able to make it appear from the bottle faster. This I learned may be true or may been just by chance but regardless, closer to the bowl & CA is not where you want to be with your face when the CA begins to gush from the bottle at an alarming rate. I am sure it is crystal clear what happened now....as oposed to then when I saw the CA splashingform the bowl back towards my face. I was fortunate my Girlfriend was home as one eye was glued shut and I was worried the other would get some CA in it. She came racing out and I told her what happened. She got me to the kitchen sink and began to rinse my face. Initially one eye was burning quite a bit but that subsided. I still had one eye that was glued shut but we got that opened up and I was back to finishing the bowl. I wear a good face shield when I am turning but didn't give it a second thought in this instance. Trust me I will in the future. Now does anyone have a good way to clear the Dried CA from my beard & mustache?
