CA Question
"Keith Young" wrote in message
... After filling cracks with Ca, the surrounding wood becomes saturated also. Anybody have a solution. Maybe coating the area around the crack with something that can be easily be removed later. Of course, the best thing to do is to run CA into the crack before you take the final passes with gouge or paper. The capillary draw into the crack will be much greater than the draw into the grain of the wood, especially if the wood is cool. You can also help your cause by spritzing the accelerator on the area prior to using the CA. More rapid cure will keep the penetration low on the surface, while still allowing good capillary draw. It also helps to spritz the opposite side so you won't have problems with leakage when you start spinning again. |
