I'm going to post this in the Turner's forum, because it is related to creating "spinny things". I've recently finished up my first router bowl (http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?p=799330&posted=1#post799330). I'm pretty happy with the results, and my head is starting to spin with possible concepts. That led me to this question.
Turner's use "green" wood all the time using a lathe. Would it make sense that the same type of green wood could be used with templates, routers, collet extensions, and router bits? There's a pretty decent chance that I'm missing something that would make this concept a bad idea, but I'm not sure what it could be.
I'd be very interested to see what the collective SMC Turner's society thinks of this concept. Thanks very much!!
