Rotary Carving

[James RS]

Question, what is the smallest diameter you can carve down to with the Rotary Jig?

Thanks
Jim

I have done walking canes that were 1 inch across

I just test carved a piece .750" deep. I don't recomend doing it, but I wanted to know how it would perform. The wood was flexing a lot as the bit made the cuts on the last 1/4" of the circumference.
I think if one had a short dowel, and used "Ask Buds" third rail, it would be fine. But then again, I'm not recomending it.
(it's not recomended that you drive a car over the speed limit, but folks do it all the time) just saying.......
