alcohol drying question

>If my bowls weigh the same two days in a row does that mean they are dry and can be finished? Or, must I wait more than a day to compare the weight.

Thanks

>How long has it been drying?

Hi Ken,

I attached a graph of a typical bowl drying. It plots weight in ounces verses time in hours. The bulk of the weight loss occurs in the first few days. If you have taken daily reading you will have noticed that the weight changed very little the last several days. I would say the bowl is ready to turn.

You are welcome to email or call if you need more information.

I have been following your protocol for a couple months and have a spreadsheet with my results. I have been very pleased with your method. Do you want me to send you a copy of the data?
