The next try, put a piece of tape across the cuts you have made, tape the same path as the bit.  Then the tape will act like a shock absorber and nullify the run-away vibrations.  After the cut, tape up what you just did and remove the tape for the next cut.

        Ouch, that last cut through can be quite delicate. I step the
        bit down incrementally maybe 1/16 to 3/32” at a time at the
        most and hand crank it to feel the cut.

            Hey Chris,

            Yeah I had a large spiral I was turning last night that
            was going to be my first attempt to do a through spiral,

            everything went south about 2/3rds of the way through.

            I did contribute to the wood pile with that project. One
            thing that happened is the acme screw came loose. oops.

            I did my first pen on my big lathe and am super happy
            with it. I gifted my wife with it.

            I will actually post that yet tonight if I get time.
            heading back out to master that through spiral. lol

                Tim,

                I tried turning a spiral pen on the LOM and it went
                bad quickly.  Among other things I chewed up the end
                of the pen mandrel screw knob and the part on the
                legacy that pushes against the mandrel (I guess the
                equivalent of a tail stock). I've got a
                "Frankenstein" machine I put together from a LOM
                1200 and 1000 and not everything is fitting
                correctly.  Anyway, I'm sure I'll figure it out
                sometime in 2022!

                Happy New Year to all of you,

                Chris

                    for sure thanks for the encouragement Chris.

                    I'm very stoked to start pen turning. I actually
                    cut several pen

                    blanks this morning as I was moving things
                    around to work

                    on the next job. I have several that are
                    Granidillo, some nice walnut

                    that has some super grain patt. will even do
                    some maple and oak

                    to do some tests on. I'd like to do some that I
                    can mill a flat spot on

                    on the LOM for a laser surface too. I have dig
                    for the Mesquite but

                    I know I have bits of it somewhere.

                    more later

                            Hello Everyone.

                            Today I found some mesquite wood , sold
                            as longs

                            By Kingsford for barbequing $19.95 for a
                            bag.

                            Since Mesquite is not a native wood of
                            my area. I did not think

                            it was such a bad deal. this wood is
                            very heavy, And looks to be

                            some pretty good quality of wood its self.

                            I plan to find out how it turns this
                            weekend.

                            Wish me luck. ;-)

                            talk to you all more latter.

                            Have a good night.
