Hi

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HI i am new and need some help.

I need to know how to dry wet wood pen blanks as fast as I can???????

This post was from Pen Man and I transfered it here thinking he would get a better answer. I suggested using the microwave oven but do not know time limits. Anyone else help here???.

Using the food nuker for drying?...hhhmmmm. never heard that one.. I usually let pen blanks sit in the shop for at least 2 weeks. If they are resing impregnated i usually cut, drill and turn that day. have a book somewhere that says something about putting wood into an oven but alas cant find it..interesting concept and sounds like a new way for me to get into trouble! :D
Would like to know about that one so i dont have to stare at my new pen blanks and can turn that day!will also post the info on the oven..if i can find that book!



like my old First sgt used to say..Old tankers never die...we just smell that way
