Hello,
Being new here, I recently saw pics of a couple of knot pens that used brass and aluminum with the wood insert in a knot design. My question is where do you get the metal for these? I'm assuming that the aluminum and brass are soft enough metals that the chisels won't be damaged in turning, but I wasn't sure. Also, where do you get these metals?
Any info would be most appreciated!
Thanks!!
