Hello. I've got some birdseye maple blanks for sale from cleaning up around the shop. They are very dry (kiln dried and on shelf for years). The dims are in the pics. Most are sap wood and range from light to heavy. I tried splitting them up evenly among the boxes. May have minor defects like...
would it be possible to add a third limit switch to kill the lathe and router but not the travel and then when the travel hits the last switch it kicks it in reverse until the tailstock switch is met? I enclosed mine as well to keep dust and noise down.
Any interest in some dymondwood shafts? Rosewood color and around 32" long. Roughly .78" at ferrule end and dipped in stabilizer. I have 5. PM offer for trades or cash.
Thanks for the advice. i cored the blanks and got them reasonably close to save on resin and to allow them to work from the outside in and the inside out hoping it would dye better. The resin worked really well just wanted to "boost" the dying aspect.
Hello. Has anyone ever tried dying blanks while stabilizing them at the same time? I tried dying some maple burl using blue mixed in with my stabilizing resin but it doesn't look like its going to turn out right. I have a very good vacuum setup and used more powder dye than was recommended...
