I went and picked up my 150.00 Rikon Lathe and as the gentleman said it had never been used and it wasn't. Here is the problem got home around noon been playing from about 12:01 and made a couple pens 1 slim line zebra wood this is the 3rd pen I have turned and my 4th pen is a cigar acrylic pen I had to stop will post pics in the AM. I also got this stuff called plyobond it is an all bamboo plywood that is layered and cubed kinda cool blew apart half a slimline got to aggressive or not enough epoxy not sure.
