Stafford Knot

[cropwell]

I have cut one Stafford Knot, and tried to resin embed it, but the resin is still sticky. So I tried again and my Kress spindle went pop, just near the end, with only the final cut-out to do.

The idea is to cut 7mm down in 8mm wood and then pour in water clear casting polyester resin. When the resin is set, then sand off the underneath.

I am not unhappy about the sodding spindle, I just need some new brushes. While I wait for them to come from Germany, I am converting it to use a Super-PID speed control, which I have had for ages, but never fitted (on the basis that the spindle was working OK).
