The non damaged surface looks unusual. What kind of wheel and grit?

My wheels seem to be more rubberized. Generally, I use hard wheels to remove anything sharp before going to soft. You should be able to get some use out of the wheel before replacing; work across the wheel and using the non damaged areas for the sides.

This was inside the wood/Chrystal after the first 2 grits And was quite smooth and something black was just under The surface . I gave the final to mom without taking a picture so the rock/wood in the picture is a before example. I made a few other cabs after and will keep as a backup.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
