I know this question has likely been asked/answered in prior posts, however, I can't find the exact answer.
I have ordered Dymondwood and acrylic blanks for the first time. Do these blanks cut, drill and turn similar to wood blanks? Can you cut them on the tablesaw, drill them with HSS brad point drill bits,turn with a skew/gouge, etc.
I am new to turning, though I have cut plastic on my tablesaw before (with mixed results, some melting).
I appreciate any advice that you may offer.
Thanks
