While turners have been early adapters of CBN wheels - they have been slower to penetrate the "flat" world. Derek was kind enough to run me through his set-up when I was in Australia, and he's really worked through his workflow with CBN. Not only has he been using them for years, he's worked through various grits and styles as well.
I'd be happy to arrange a session at the Edmonton store, where you could bring in some blades or chisels, and give each wheel a try. Just mail me directly at
rlee@leevalley.com to set it up. In any event - we are always happy to take back products that don't meet your expectation.
Cheers -
