re: 2nd try at Pens
geez keebs are you drunk ? i had to look twice at what you said man ?
Ha! This coming form Pottz 🤣
Tony, I did the same thing on my first pen. I turned it right down to the bushings and then when I sanded it I ended up undersized. Now I leave everything just a little proud and finish it up with the sanding. I’m not good enough on the lathe to be perfect the first go ‘round. I think of it as I’m turning the blank to rough shape then finishing the shaping with my sanding. The finish looks nice! Well done!
Keebs congrats on the CNC! What a great addition!
