Cactus juice - anyone used it?
« on: March 18, 2018, 04:20:54 PM »
I have a pile of burrs to use, some are a little punky and rather than the usual thin ca glue approach I was looking ar cactus juice to impregnate the wood. Cactus juice is expensive I have the vacuum chamber but wonder if I am over complicating or is it worth the investment?
Your thoughts and experiences appreciated.
