Hi Folks:
I am struggling with AA blanks for the first time. I cracked one set of blue with white stars while drilling the hole, and them did the same thing with the red and white (driiling on my lathe).
Then I had my friend drill another set for me (he did it fine on his drill press), then I blew both blanks while using my carbide finish tool on both!
I am TBC with LLinez bushings.
Are these PSI blanks known to be extra brittle? These were the first AA blanks that I have blown after making 80 pens in less than 4 months.
I though these were a no-brainer.
Thank for reading!
Best,
Tony
