Dymalux. ♫ εηdεd ♫

[Ben Shook]

I'm looking for a piece or 2 of Dymalux, 1.5" diameter by 3" long. Thanks.

Is that the same as dymondwood?

Are you looking for a specific color? I have some slabs 2-3 inches thick of black and brown we aren't sure of which trade name it is, Harder than Spectraply but not quite as hard as Dymondwood.

 

[Ben Shook]

Well, color isn't really important. I had someone contact me about turning a piece of Dymalux for them that they would send to me. I figured I would try to turn some first before I took a chance on messing up someone else's blank.

Good question pinky. From what I understand Dymalux is pretty hard, almost like turning micarta.

 

[Schroedc]

@Tclem - Wasn't that Dymalux you had been using a while back? Have any around?

 

[pinky]

I probably sold dynmondwood to @Tclem .
@Ben Shook I would be surprised if dymalux is harder than dymondwood. Maybe someone who has used both could chime in. I might have some 1 1/2 red dymondwood available if you're interested. Not sure what is left in that dimension.

 

[Tclem]

I use dymalux and webbwood. I have turned 1000 sticks out of both of them. . They are both up there very close (in my opinion) as dymondwood. I use both of them for sticks and have had great success. Most of my stuff is cut up or I buy the 1/2" slabs. I did get dymondwood from you @pinky

 

[Tclem]

You won't mess it up. I turn it down to 1/16th on one end on my sticks and it won't break. Turns smooth. Sands easy and wax is a good finish

 

[Ben Shook]

Thanks for all the input guys. @pinky let me know what you have. I may be interested in some for sure.

 

[pinky]

I have a piece 19" long of 2" thick ripped at 1 5/8" wide. I also have a sheet of 1 3/8" thick which I would rip at 1 3/8" wide. If you are looking for only 6" of material, I would prefer not to rip the full sheet and just cut off the 2" thick material.

[Ben Shook]

Oh, I understand completely. Shoot me price
