Matt Estlea
Published on 22 Jan 2019A few of you have suggested that I try make a pen as it makes a great beginners project for the lathe. But seeing as I have previously made a pen I decided to challenge myself by using Black Palm; a notoriously difficult material to work, new Skew techniques, and a superglue finish.
It didn’t go well.

Matt Estlea
Published on 18 Oct 2017Getting your saw started in the cut, square across the width, and tracking along a line is a common difficulty for beginners. In this video I’ll show you techniques that I used myself in order to make my cuts as accurate as possible.
