You can use a flat lap and grind the blank and polish before you slump.

Ive had the same thing happen Phil. It depends on the piece. If it is a large or nice art piece, I will redo it, and my family gets more gifts! If it is a production piece, I evaluate it on how minor it is, and if I am probably the only one to notice, if so, let it go. From what I have seen of your ...

I too am wondering who else got in. I know there are probably politics involved to some degree. There is everywhere. In my case however, I do not know anybody at Pilchuck, and this is my first application. Have heart. I hope that to some degree they read the application and look at the slides to get...

Oh alright. Saturday was pretty amazing as I received notification from Pilchuck that I was accepted into Klaus Moje's class in July and August. I don't think that it has really sunk in yet. My head is spinning. I know from what you and Avery have told me that it will be a wonderful experience. This...

Thanks. I like the design of the toyo, and prefer carbide over steel. It is just nice to find out if anybody really does not like one. The toyo is more money, but looks worth it. I am not sure about the fletcher. It is less, but I don't always like to go for the lowest price. The cutters mate seems ...

large circle cutter
Hi all. I wanted to know if anyone had experience with the larger circle cutters? I need to cut circles 23" and up. I have found several:
Fletcher circlemate II
Toyo circle supercutter
Cutters mate
Silberschnitt
What works, or doesn't?
Thanks,
Dick

Thanks for the replies. I understand both sides. Basically, if they are not insured you have to be willing to write it off. I know most of the time this will not be an issue, but want to be upfront. I am looking into insurance just to price it. I have heard horror stories of not only work being brok...
