Just wanted to know if there is anything to watch out for when turning laminated wood. I salvaged a chunk of 2x6 fir beam from an older school we were renoing earlier this year. I was going to use it for firewood but with the new lathe thought it might be fun to try to turn a bowl out of it. I have the outside turned and have cleaned it up with the scrapers now I will be starting the inside and hollowing it out. Just a little leary of how this stuff will react when I start working it down. anything to watch out for or should I just pass on this and use it for fire wood? All advice is appreciated.
