I need some help. Yesterday I sent around 3 hrs turning this blank to find out when I got the cap that there were 2 cracks in the end. This had to come fromthe exiting of the drill bit.
It wasnt guit down to size so I thought i could scratch the cracks a little deeper and apply so thick Ca. So I done that and it did cover them up But I had to turn it down tosze and I must not have made the crack deep enough. So now that is down to size I think I will turn about A 1/4 of an in down to the tube. I wish I could find the cutoff from this blank but It is long gone. I am almost sure I got it from Exotics. I am thinking the name was Golden Dawn
Ed or Dawn is that what it is?
I posted a picture. Not a very good one. It needs buffed again and some renwax.but looking at it does anyone have any suggestions what to segment the end with. Wood, Acrylic ,Lite color, dark color? I dont really know.
I lhave learned one thing is to cut the blanks as long as possible. Thanks
