I wouldn't put it on a knife without stabilizing it, it is quite soft and porous.Although I stabilize almost everything I use Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have some camphor that is drying now. It was super wet. After stabilizing I doubt it will smell much if at all Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am sure I will be, thanks for the info!

What do you do specifically with your horizontal belt grinder that you wouldn't do with your vertical grinder? Just wondering as I am in the process of making my grinder go horizontal

Well built, that looks like it works great!

Things have been crazy but on Monday I got an awesome package from Darren sanders, curly hickory, bocote, and Osage orange scales! Thanks so much Darren! I can't wait to throw it on a knife! I am so glad to participate, knifemakers are the coolest guys around. Merry Christmas...

Yeah I actually use cactus juice to stabilize a lot of the wood I use. It works great! I have some on hand I plan to stabilize this pinecone with. From my experiments so far, the heat of stabilizing the wood doesn't seem to affect the resin. It softens up a tiny bit while hot but hardens right...

Awesome, can't wait to try it out. Thanks for all the help you give to us new guys. Your skills are much appreciated!

Thanks for the tutorials I love going through them! I have a question about the superglue finish. Is the purpose of the debonder just to smooth out the bumps or does it help the super glue soak in better? Also, do you sand with the debonder?

I will second that turntex is the way to go. I bought some cactus juice from him and received a shipping refund because he was able to send it cheaper. Super good customer service, and I also searched all around and you can't beat his prices
