I just finished my first Lapis Blue Tru-Stone Jr. Statesmen FP. It looks great, just don't have a picture yet.
And I have to say, that tru-stone is the most miserable stuff I've ever turned or finished. I think only a ball-peen hammer could dull tools quicker. And it took me 3 times longer to sand and polish compared to corian or acrylic.
If it didn't look so purdy when polished up I don't think it would be worth it. So yes, I'm going to be getting me some more of the stuff.
I'm a glutton for punishment, can't you tell?
