26-05 Demo: Abrasives by Dennis Cahill

ABRASIVES.   A rough topic no matter how you look at it.  Most woodturners hate to sand and work very hard to get that perfect final cut that virtually eliminates the need to sand.  During this presentation, we will discuss the history of abrasives and how they are made.  Different types of abrasives and their suggested use, and we will go over some of the places you can go to get the most bang for your bucks in terms of purchasing abrasives.  Finally, We ask that you bring your favorite sanding tool, hack, or  trick and share with the class.  See you on May 2nd.
