Pictures below - bought some new tools one of which was a new spur center. According to the add it is very strong and meant to use on natural edge turnings etc - It resembles one for spindle stuff but the ad said it was super strong etc..
Day off today and mounted up a mesquite blank - two wacks with a wood mallet and put it in with my new steb spur center in the tail stock and started turning - holding power is great and finished the bowl in the normal manner. Then took it all apart to reverse into my supernova and noticed the edges on the spur were bent..........I was not happy at all and plan on calling them on Monday to complain about it. I was told this would incrediably strong by the person taking the order and is far better than a two prong......I like CS but this just irritates me to no end.......ahhhhhh well ill let you know what happens
