[Crw-talk] Carbide Demo Outline-Mark Palma.pdf

[John & Donna Griffiths]

Well everyone, I for one enjoyed Mark's demo.  I think now I have a much 
better idea of how to use carbide cutters.  My issue has always been 
that I find it darn near impossible to get nice cuts with cutting 
carbide tips.  Mainly I got self feeding, aggressive cuts and catches, 
and scraping a bowl rather than cutting it just does not appeal to me.  
In the past I would just get frustrated with the carbide and rely on the 
steel tools.  Until I would become adventuresome and go back to 
misguided efforts to use carbide, then get frustrated once again and go 
back to the old reliable steel.  So right now I have several roughed out 
bowl blanks drying and when they are ready, I am going to give the 
carbide the old college try once again.

Thanks for bringing him in.  John
