I turned an M3 Black Gold blank last night. Didn't seem to have any trouble, Turned with carbide cutter, sanded 400, 600, 800 and cross sanded. Use the part a and part 5 polishes and man it looked good! Assempled the Triton FP components on it - put it under my magnifying work light to confirm fit/finish etc and was horrified. Both pieces of the blank are covered with random scratches/chips. This didn't happen from poor handling or bumping or dropping. They are scattered all around the blank.
Any idea what happened? I hate losing s $30 blank!:frown: And don't want to do this twice!
