Any ideas?
I started out with the pickle jar stabilizing using Cabot Gloss Polyurthane (8010).
http://www.cabotstain.com/products/product/Oil-Polyurethane.html?productTypeName=Protective Top Coat
The blanks sunk to the bottom after about an hour and a half. Then I let them sit for probably at least a week. After turning them, I sanded to 12000 MM, and followed with the Fairchild method of CA and BLO. For some reason, The glue doesn't seem to want to take on some areas.
I also turned a set of blanks from the same piece of wood a week prior to this one using the same CA/BLO method, only the first set wasn't stabilized. It had the same problem with the CA glue not taking in some areas making the finish appear thin.
I'm using Hot Stuff Super "T".
The guy from Woodcraft suggested trying the CA without any kind of accelerant, so I'm going to try some of the thick CA and let it sit awhile between coats.
Any other ideas?
