What's in the mail?

Tony be sure and show some pics of that in use. I cant wrap my head around what it is for.
 
What is that thing?

It's part of the Ruth Niles Offset jig. The part I posted are attachments for turning different sized pieces, I plan to.make some matching pendant and earring sets. Maybe these pics will help explain it.

whats the shelf life after you start using it? Seems like some of the regular thin and medium I use seems to not do as well after 6 months or so.

I've had a bottle of the black CA in my fridge I've been using for over 2 years, still fine.

In the frig.....maybe that is the difference. I have a couple new bottles there.....looks like I need to get into a new habit.

thanks Tony

Yes sir, it helps them last a lot longer. The only drawback is that you have to remember to take them out before you need it so it can warm up some, doesn't flow real well cold.
 
I seem to use mine up before it goes bad. I have also learned to just buy the 2 oz size. Buying larger does seem to go bad. I usually only buy thin and medium, and accelerator.

That has been me Greg, by the small ones. We had a guy in the turning club buying in bulk and giving us a discount. Wish we were meeting so we could get more. That bottle in your picture looked larger, that led to my comment.
 
Amazon! Lol. Because I can get stuff cheap and not have to deal with people shopping.
Restocked some of my vitamins and lysine supplements. Some thin CA because the project im working on is soaking it up. Vanilla beans, and a new face shield for turning. And N95 face mask because of the covid thing for work, some places I go to to make pick ups and deliveries won't even let me in the building.

A serious upgrade from my old home depot face shield.

Just ordered a part for my Sorby eccentric chuck that I got a while back. No one stateside had it. It’s a spindle adapter so it’ll work on my 1.25 in spindles. (Won’t get it in time for the challenge)
Know what the shipping is from UK ?
For that part was $25— almost what the part cost.
Not upset... just a for instance.
