Wowza! I know my next project in the JakeCave! I have to lay down now..  |

just let me warn you if you play with that coco...it's like iron..it doesn't give at all,,so one opps and you'll be eating your knife or the wood or pulling splinter's out of skin...chatter's like crazy when cutting it .....and keep the vac snoz up against the wood as close as you can[like an inch away] so theres no dust on the loose....great lookin wood fa shore,,,but feels like it's under great preasure and ready to blow at anytime.
thxs. again for the comp's..guy's..on the hunt for other wood's,just have to find abit lrg. pc's. without having to buy a whole log.

I've worked with coco b4 but never turned it . What's the supposed danger from the dust ?  |

Great job CS - probably took longer to glue up than to turn. AWSOME !!! What did you use for glue and how much pressure to clamp em? Also did the glue have any effect on turning the plugs?   |

Cs a couple of questions if you don't mind. How was it doing the through wire drilling? Just wondering if the boring gave you any difficulty. The other question deals with sanding all that end grain, did you spend a lot of time with real fine grit?
But as has been stated goregous work. Always fun to do Something completely different.
