After I glue up my blanks, I use a barrel trimmer to clear the tube of epoxy, and flush up the ends. Since I started turning, all I've ever done was 7mm tubes, so I use the same trimmer for everything.
I noticed in PSI's catalog, their "free accessory kit" that comes with some packages includes a "barrel trimming sleeve." Can anyone clarify what exactly this is? Is it a whole new trimmer? Or something that fits over the trimmer I have? Or do the shaft/trim head separate and it's a different diameter shaft?
My other thought is, I recently switched to drilling my blanks on the lathe, but I still have been trimming them with the trimmer chucked into my corded hand drill. Can I also trim on the lathe? I would assume so, but I don't want to make any assumptions
