Hey guys,
So I'm pretty new to this, I have 12 pens under the belt now. In the 26 half blanks that I've trimmed up, I've had 2 blanks essentially explode (one literally, the other just tore really bad).
This happens right as the pen mill starts to kiss the blank.
My question is, when using a pen mill, should i just expect this to happen? or is it likely I'm doing something wrong? (as in, I'm applying too much pressure initially?)
Thanks everyone!
Chris
