ok so i went by a local counter top shop looking to buy or maybe even dumpster dive for scraps to make pens.well the owner was there so i asked his permission and he actually went into the shop and hand picked several colors of "scraps" and gave them to me:eusa_danc.
so now i have the corian but i have no idea how to machine/turn it.:help: do i need a special blade(looked like he was using a triple chipwood blade)or specail turning tools? any advice would be greatly appreciated.and if anyone in the local area could show me the ropes of pen turning(or any of the many other things i keep trying to teach myself lol) that would be great!! who knows i might finally learn how to do something the right way.
