Recently bought a couple for culinary duty.
See where they have a wood working version that can be chucked in a drill press as an alternate to a sanding drum. Anybody ever use one? If so, how did it work out? Lew |

Might work pretty well on balsa but pretty worthless for anything harder. |

They'll fold and crimp if you put too much weight on them, they're also quite soft so cutting something grittily abrasive will blunt them. If CW found his not to cut, then I'd suggest that it had probably cut a lot better when new, but had been blunted by something too hard. |
