Hi peoples,
There was a need for me to address some of the "difficulties" some people have been experiencing when turning my #45 Banksia Hairy pods Resifill blanks. There has been an increase of people trying these blanks and some are having a hard time with them, there are a number of reasons why this could be happening but, those are not what I want to talk about instead, I created a step by step demonstration, to how handle these blanks.
I had in mind to do it for some time but, a recent enquire made on my new vendors forum, as pushed me to had it done faster.
I believe that, the information contained on that demonstration, is applicable to many other type of resin embedded blanks, regardless of who made them, some people may find not necessary many of my suggestions but I also believe that those, are the turners with a fair amount of experience dealing/handling these type of constructed blanks so, there is a large portions of turners that may have never tried anything but solid wood or solid acrylic and my demonstrations will help them to tackle pretty much any type of blanks that can be tagged as difficult or fragile...!
If you want to have a look, do so with a little spare time, it will take some time to get through it all, lots of pics though...!:wink::biggrin:
Have a look in here, on post #2
Cheers
