I have managed to ruin a blank or two by being a little careless with my sandpaper during the sanding process. I would imagine there are one or two others out there who have had the same problem? Now that I have a few pens under my belt, it is not an issue for me any more; but new turners are always coming along and needing help.
Occurred to me last night that a plastic disk about 1" in diameter cut out the top of a Cool Whip container and with a hole in it about the diameter of the tube of the kit you are turning and inserted between the blank and the bushing might eliminate the problem. What do you think? Anybody ever tried such a thing??
