The last couple of years have been difficult as I had been the primary caretaker for my wife of 55 years. She passed recently and I expect to have more time to clean up the shop and get back to turning. Due to my own health I am going to give up outdoor shows where I have to haul and set up a tent. That leaves smaller indoor shows in school gyms which I am confident I can handle. These shows typically don't move high priced pens as people are mostly looking for gifts and unless it's for a loved one are not going to pay for a well done roller ball. I have started to replenish my inventory o Trimlines and will probably add some slimlines to the inventory.
All that being said, I am thinking about adding some small bowls. I want to do wood /resin composite hybrids. My major question is what kind of resin would the bowl turners here recommend. I have watched John Underhill's videos and followed an English fellow named David on Facebook. John is a great teacher, but has not made resin recommendations on his videos, at least those I have watched multiple times.
I am guessing Alumilite Clear or some brand of deep pour epoxy. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance.
