Thanks Greg, I shall give it a try.
There are not many good click pens that I have found. Best luck I have had is with the Gatsby/sierra click. Some like the vertex but everyone I have made has broke. If you go with vertex you need...
I use general finishes wood turners finish because you are able to put multiple coats on in minutes with a heat gun. I also have used wipe on poly and waterlox, but I prefer WTF
I have only used the shaft mechanism crush grind and best price I have found is Craft Supplies.
PSI sells one similar and much cheaper but I believe it is a china knock off and you can tell in...
It was monkey pod for sure, Monkey puzzle looks like Norfolk pine with knots. I have seen enough of it and it was chatoyant with rays. I also purchased the wood from Aloha Hardwoods on the big...
I brought monkey pod back with me from Hawaii last fall. The minute I started turning it, I was not stop sneezing. The only wood I have found that has bothered me. My cat was sneezing also who is...

I also use Trufuel for my saw and weed eater. The 93 octane and no ethanol makes it start first pull every time. Like mentioned it has a 2 year self life when opened and a 5 year unopened. Small...
looks great, I just got an articulated hollower myself, but have yet to use it. Looks like I need to get into the shop.
Depends on what island you are going to, I was there in September and was on Oahu and the big Island. On Oahu all I found was Honolulu Woodcraft which was like no other woodcraft I have been to. No...
I have them and love them I bought the full set but you do not need a handle for them, I just use them free hand rocking back and forth. It depends on what you are turning. If basket weave you will...
