After much discussion and encouragement I have begun doing my penturning drilling on the lathe. It was the BEST decision I have made. I do have a quick question, however. When drilling acrylics (for example, a 3" blank for a razor handle) am I better off cutting the blank to size first or drilling in the 3" and, then, cutting the end off? The lathe drilling does seem to eliminate most of my previous 'blow-out' problems. I do thank the many people who have encouraged me, and others, to move to this method. It works GREAT!
