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.
