Turning Purpleheart?
--Hi, gang. I'm taking a breather from metalworking for a spell in
order to finish a project I dropped a while back. I've been using a metal lathe to turn little widgets out of various materials, but I reeeeally like Purpleheart for this thing. I've put up a page of my progress, or lack thereof. I'm sure I'm doing several things wrong and I'd appreciate any useful input the sages may care to convey. --Current problems, aside from a dreadful setup, include getting a good finish and preserving it in some way.
