Of course I'm new with question like this but working on it...
I see video's with turners going from skew directly to 320 or 500 grit sand paper. I can't get close to that and have tried 1500 to over 3000 rpm on pen blank. I've tried slowing horizontal movement and taking "lighter " cuts. That helped and I don't get the little chunks coming out. But, I still have to start with 80 grit and work my way up.
Would appreciate any tips for me to practice. Or, what are common mistakes that I'm likely making?
Thanks,
Regis
