I usually power sand, since I can free-wheel the lathe I just leave it "off" and let the sander spin the object |

I've also seen the heat cause checks (cracks) in the wood. Slower is better. I usually power sand, since I can free-wheel the lathe I just leave it "off" and let the sander spin the object I like to power sand with the 2" disk in my drill. Doing so, and varying the speed helps create a random pattern, sort of like a random orbit sander. So moderate lathe speed, and moderate sander speed is what I usually shoot for... ....Kevin |

Your comments would be just a little less coherent if you left the spaces out between the words. |
