I seem to really struggle when turning acrylics, especially acrylester. I seem to end up with too much chip out or blow the blank up completely. I have tried using a pen turning gouge, a skew chisel on it's side, and a scraper but seem to ruin about half the blanks I start with. I've turned many pens and have no problem with wood or antler but the acrylics are driving me mad and getting expensive! Can someone point me to a tutorial or offer advice?
