I have had a request to make a pen from a leopard acrylic blank. I haven't turned acrylic yet so I'm not sure what to expect from it.
Can I turn acrylic with the EWT tools, or do I have to go the gouge/skew route? I'm not terribly comfortable with a skew yet but I don't want to have tear out from the scraping action of the carbide scraper.
Any pointer in the right direction would be great. Thanks!
