I recently dove into some new woodturning techniques, experimenting with carving, resin blending, and stabilizing punky spalted maple. Some of my ideas worked beautifully; others taught me exactly what NOT to do next time. Though things didn’t always go as planned, this project turned into a colorful adventure filled with valuable lessons and surprising outcomes.
I’d love your thoughts, suggestions, or similar stories—what experiments have you tried lately, and what did you learn from them?
