    Default A Worms eating my Acrylics

    Sorry for photo it was mobile phone shot.


    In turning a blank today I discovered this more than 1/2 way inside the blank looks like a worm hole which you'd find in wood.

    I'll show the end result soon I hope.

    Looks like a big bubble that made its way to the surface during the initial set. I'd fill it with some glitter & CA or something similar and make a feature out of it.

    Neil I took the chance and just filled with CA to stabalise and it ended up above finish turned mark anyway.
