Hey all, I have a customer that wants 9 pens in an acrylic that matches her school colors. Being a woodophile I have not yet turned acrylic. I understand that the tools need to be very sharp so I hit the Tormek and went to town. It was fun to turn and then I realized that I haven’t figured out how to finish them yet. I did some research and found a source for acrylic sanding pads up to 12000 grit. Does anyone add any finish to this mix or is sanding to 12k enough. Coming from traditional wood turning I feel obligated to add something for protection, but I guess this isn’t necessary. Just looking for some reassurance since this is for a customer. -- Check out my blog and podcast "The Renaissance Woodworker" at www.rogersfinewoodworking.com/blog |
