      what kind of spindle did you switch to? Noise level is one of my biggest concerns to working indoors at night.

    2. artyman

      artyman

      Gotta find someone to machine some curly birch blocks into wooden end cheeks for my synths...

    2. technobreath

      Oh yeah! curly birch is extremely cool looking. Especially under 10 coats of clear, og even epoxy poured! I worked quite a bit with that wood in school, looks like birch with flames! :) awesome.
