Hi all,
I'm turning my first segmented bowl. Its Hard maple and Parduk. It's just layered wood. Sanding and finishing has been troublesome as parts of my Maple are now pink. What should I have done to avoid this?
At first I didn't pay any mind to my sanding then I noticed what happened so I started sanded from the maple into the parduk etc and have applied the finish in the same fashion then level out. At this point I don't think I can fix with out taking my gouge back to it. I can live with it the way it is as I spent a ton of time sanding to get it to an acceptable level. I sealed with shellac then sanded the maple down which helped some.
In any case I have another bowl of Walnut and maple on my plate next and would love to know a better way or something I could have done differently.
thanks
