[VFB] Toastmaster mini lathe

2015-11-06 Thread Neville Gosling 
Resending because it did not show up


Hello Jack:

Although I am not familiar with this item, I have turned a lot of cork handles 
in my time. For a long time I achieved this using a power drill  (corded) in a 
horizontal position on a stand, however I have always preferred to glue the 
corks on the blank and then turn it. I now use a Dale Clemens rod lathe to turn 
cork handles on the blank.  You don’t need a lot of power but speed control is 
helpful. Back in the 60’s and 70’s I turned cork handles on the blank by 
mounting them vertically and used strips of sandpaper going around the corks 
and sanded completely by hand but doing a lot of turning and measuring.  I am 
sure that you could turn a cork handle with your Toastmaster lathe and then fit 
to a blank.
