Has anyone used a heat gun to soften up an acrylic blank before turning?
It occurred to me that certain acrylics are inherently brittle at room temp.
So, does heating the blank slightly make them any easier to turn?
I would try it, but my heat gun died on me.
Any thoughts, opinions, or general comments on using this method?
