Default Rough Turning Spindle Blanks


Hi John, As soon as the gum hardens, I chop the branches and bark from
green Norfolk Is. pine logs. Then I rough to round between centers with
a spindle turning gouge. Then I slather liquid dish washing soap diluted
1:2 all over the rounds. They dry without cracking if kept out of sun &
rain.


Turn to Safety, Arch
Fortiter
