I just got a New Job selling "Chevy's" ( a shameless plug for you guys in Tampa, and West central Florida). To celebrate I made a sojurn to my local Woodcraft store and picked up a few things I needed
(Needed???:rolleyes: )
I got a kit with 2" and 3" sorby sanding pads, and some abrasive discs. An assortment of 2' discs for the sorby, from 60 to 400. I've been using a stiff "twist lock" pad with a little Harbor Freight pnumatic angle grinder.
A Pinnacle parting tool. Previously I only had an old small Craftsman parting tool. I've had good luck with my Pinnacle bowl scraper so far.
I also picked up a Crown "Bedan parting tool", that was on close out. It's 3/8" square Sheffield HSS steel. I plan on regrinding it, and making a small square scraper out of it for finishing the corners of small boxes. It was marked down from $46.99, to $23.49.
And last but certainly not least a couple of bowl blanks, cherry, and walnut.
Here's some pictures for the dreaded "PP".
