Hi all after not using the CW for about a year I am now going to tackle a fairly large project. Anything special I should do before firing up the CW?

I carved one in cherry and it turned out great, no fuzzies to speak of. I finished BLO mixture then sprayed some laquer on it after several days.
Peter,
I have had good results using scrap pieces of corian (sink cutouts etc.) from a counter top maker (read free) and then plane them down to 1/4 inch. If you have a planer, and a source, I...
