The one on the left has a stem that is 1/8" in diameter over a 9" run with beads every 1 1/2" and a captive ring.

Very stable lathe and very sharp tools. I wouldn't dream of turning this thin. The thing would blow up on me and pieces would be flying with a plethora of religious words. Even if I am a wood turner, I'm not trying to match your tool. It's easier and quicker for me to just buy them. Order was placed yesterday.

Thanks Meleck, it was turned on a Powermatic 3520A lathe with original Jerry Glaser A-11 tools (not the new Glaser Hitec garbage the folks that bought his name are making).

Turning the goblets aren't as bad as it would appear if you know the process. I have had to teach & do demos on how to turn them using a Jet mini in the past if you can believe that...

I did receive your order and confirmed it today. I should have them in the mail to you tomorrow afternoon if all goes well. Thanks! :)

I am very interested in this. Can i get your information so i can purchase one of these from you?

Thanks,

Ben Hollon

I may end up making a bunch for folks that want them. They only take a few minutes to cut and turn so cost would be pretty low I imagine.

I'll have to check out the shanks at Harbor Freight. Home Depot wants $5 for the sanding drum replacement pack.

Worst case scenario, I could probably make them and get them shipped in the lower 48 for $10...that sound about right?

Sorry Ben, this thread is about a year & half old and I've since retired from burnisher making :http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=38337

There is a gentleman by the name of Gary Lyon who is turning a similar rotary burnisher though: http://leathertools4u.com/Tools-for-Sale.html
