Ok this might be like posting an oil question on a motorcycle forum, no one can agree on anything said about the subject. But here goes anyway.
What is the proper way to work with acrylic or the other plastics. Or is there a good article on how to do it? I have only tried it once and it seemed to go pretty good but I was just lucky it worked as well as it did. It was a pre-drilled blank so I didn't have to worry about that and the turning was a lot different than I am use to.
Point me in the right direction or lay your vast knowledge upon me. I want to learn to turn some different styles/materials and some day hope to have one that turns out as well as the pens I have been looking at that y'all have turned.
