Special Edition: Use one end to exfoliate and lift the hairs while the other one will gently massage the lather into your whiskers!
Actually I could polish that on the lathe buffing system I recently acquired. And now you have me wondering how it would turn out...dang it, Dave!
That exfoliation would probably leave scars lol. I used(another) different resin and it is a bit more on the brittle side of things.
Even Slender , I know I for one would still like it.... Out of curiosity couldn't you put notches at the bottom to just make it look like its meant to be ..Hey folks, sorry I haven't been around much. I also apologize to the PIF winners for taking so long to get their handles done. The end of that project is in sight, and I'll have them finished between Christmas and New Years.
Overall irrelevant shop news: What happens when you let the skew hit the turning piece before it is properly set on the tool rest. Proof that you can still make stupid mistakes no matter how long you've been doing something.
It was supposed to come out like this(minus the dust particles), but it looks like I'll be making a very slender barber style handle out of it lol.
I probably could, but that is something I haven’t looked into yet, and I’m unfamiliar with the process and possible extras required to make it work.

A vertical spindal sander would make easy work of that.

I have an semogue soc that has a chip like that, love it. Even thought about fixing it, but i feel like it has more comfortable ergo. Been almost 10 years with it and it’s a go to.
So...I am guessing Gorilla Glue is out of the question?
Maybe if I could find all the pieces, but when chunks are knocked off of a handle that is turning at 2,000 rpm I wouldn't hold out hope for finding more than some powder around the pieces embedded in the wall lol.
Dude, this is amazing! Well done!!!!
Well, I am speechless this is exactly what we discussed and even better. SOOOOO Happy with the

You’ll probably laugh even harder when I tell you that I did in fact try something similar while working out the bubble issue lol.
Literally everything I thought would be tough on this handle was easier than I expected, and everything I thought would be easy required a lot of trial and error.

We'll, all of your work paid off. That is a stunning piece of art. Bravo Eric and Congrats Dave!
I had the same thought.
Thanks! It was a fun challenge.
The drip down the side would actually be kind of tough to pull off due to the temp that the resin hits while it's curing, but I might play around with the idea on a scrap handle to see if I could do it.
drips of super glue?
I have accidently had the foamy drip occur while using a table top epoxy finish. But never did it intentionally, nor added it to anything already finished.
Unfortunately, I don't have a suggestion on making it work. My first thoughts would be either cost prohibitive or unlikely to bond.
