Had a great morning. Turned on the coffee maker, and the heaters in the garage(my shop). Don't think I'm ready for temps in the 30's again yet....guess it's a getting older thing?
I've been looking at this blank for almost a year now.....and to tell the truth, I didn't really know what I wanted to do with it.(I'm sure we've all had that happen a time or ten?) This blank was poured by BSea(Bob), not sure if he was calling them anything back then or not.....it does have that great BSea swirl to it though!!!
Turned between centers using a micrometer to get the dimensions right. I turn the blanks to about .008" over-size and then start with the funny colored MM pads through 6K.....and then do a polish with the PlastixPolish(I find it doesn't really help going the extra pads if using polish-so why bother).
Kit: Baron Satin Fountain
As always, thanks for looking!
Comments and/or critique.....always welcome. Brutal honesty helps me improve whatever I need to know about, and my skin is pretty thick!
