Never seen a Buckeye blank for sale I did not like. As you found here some pieces hold together, but most are totally improved by infusion with plastic. Feels like balsa wood it is so light in weight. Well done Paul to hold it together mate and come out the other end with a belter.

Thanks Peter.

It is amazingly light. When turning to round there was a lot of tear out, as soon as lighter cuts were used it was a good finish.

Regards
Paul
