Finishing question
I was doing some sanding and a couple of imperfection on a flat piece
of wood needed more than sanding paper. I grabbed an old metal file (fine, but kinda dull) and went at it. A few strokes later the blemish was gone but waddaya know, the wood looked & felt mirror smooth and shone like crazy, way way way nicer than I would have been able to get with 600 grit. What happened here and could I use that same file to get that kinda finish when "sanding" wood on the lathe? (The lathe is tied up right now as I'm using it as big sanding disk).
