DIAGRAM A / Parts list
TURNING THE BLANK
• Refer to Diagram B - Insert 3-4, 7mm spacer bushings
onto the mandrel shaft. Place the tip bushing (smaller diam­eter) wide-end in first. Slide on the lower blank (longer), place the center bushing narrow-end first on the mandrel.
• Next, slide the upper blank (shorter) and follow with the larger diameter cap bushing, narrow diameter on first. Use 7mm spacer bushings to fill the space to the thread. Thread on the lock nut and hand-tighten.
DIAGRAM B / Turning the Blank
• Spread glue over tube. Insert into blank with twisting motion to spread the glue evenly inside. Center tube lengthwise in the blanks.
• When the glue dries, square the ends of the blanks. Use a 10mm barrel trimmer or belt/disc sander to trim the wood down flush to the end of the brass tubes.
• Bring the tail stock snug with the mandrel hand tighten the lock nut (do not overtighten – it will damage the mandrel).
• Turn the wood down, flush with the bushings using a lathe chisel and gradual higher grits of sandpaper.
• Sand both blanks, then finish the blanks with your choice of polish and waxes.
