Re: candy dish

[Okla Mike (Liltwisted)]

Leave it chucked in and start it moving on a slow rotation

Use a section of sandpaper cut in 1/2" strips.  I use 20" strips of shop 
roll, 80 grit to start.


pass it around the twist and do a shoe shine buff on it

you will be able to handle the inside as well as the outside by passing 
the paper all the way through the hollow and out the other side.


Then it's up in grit and finish as needed.

Mike OK

strips and go up the grits. Can anyone please share some experience here.

Stan,
Very nice work. The wood appears to be walnut. I'm sure lots of
time sanding the spindles. What kind of finish did you use? Some
poly or tongue oil?

Re: candy dish

[CURTIS GEORGE]

Hey There Tim 
That's exactly what Ive done in the past. I sand the outer edges pretty much 
the normal way, on the lathe or Legacy, then I take sand cloth (I like the mesh 
type, It sorta looks like door screen, and come in roles, 3/4"-1" wide. with a 
wide range of grits. ) and sand the inside edges with the spindle locked in 
place, until the cut out looks like a round spindle. There is a lot of sanding 
to do, but its the best way that I know to get it done. 
I would think that those hollow spindles being small, something like 3/8" 
opening and small /short length, would be easier to do than something big. (but 
I could be wrong.) I've not tried anything this small on me 1000ex. 

I would like to know more about this candy dish. Please keep the commentary 
going... ;-) 
C.A.G.
