I bought 20 keychain kits to practice turning
I think I did okay. But I am really not liking CA finishing

When I was learning I practiced on my pen blanks right after I got them round. Test out a finish, see whether I liked it, and then turn the finished wood off and try again or try something else. Lather, rinse, repeat until I'm close to final shape. All that wood's going to come off and wind up in the waste bin, might as well do something useful with it first.Try turning a scrap piece of wood, do some finish on it, turn it down narrower and do it again, repeat
LOL, that's exactly what I was thinking as I was typing!Lather, rinse, repeat
