While you might be able to avoid sanding a cleanly cut spindle turning, a certain amount of sanding is inevitable with most turning projects. Expert woodturner Ernie Conover shares some of his time-honored strategies for smoothing spindles, vessels and bowls with abrasives.
Ernie, I don't understand the whole concept of petroleum products and even sanding anymore in regards to wood turning. I am on a quest to eliminate both from the workshop. They never used sandpaper years ago nor mineral spirits. If we know it is not good for us... why do it?
