So I have only made a dozen or so pens from Resin and the last couple I cracked while drilling. I did one on the press and one on the lathe and I really want to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I had never cracked one before but its now mid summer here in AZ so my garage is easily over 100 at all times. Could it be that the bit and blank are starting hot so they are just over heating faster and cracking??
