I've read a few turners recommend "turn fast,sand slow"
Fast is however much nerve I have when changing pully speeds.
1.How slow do you sand if you intend to put the finish on the blank before removing from the mandrel?
I can see where a reversing lathe is a nice feature when sanding,
2.Does anyone reverse their blanks while sandingso teh rotation in one dirction doesn't "crush" the fibers rather than "shear" them?
Just a couple of things I've been wondering about since I've started turning.
