Stabilizing Questions

That would be ISO 9001, at least in the aircraft industry.

The automotive started with ISO9000 and it proceeded into ISO9001. I remember all the Work Instructions, BOM and Routers I had to write up.:jerkit:

...Nelsonite won't work for knives,it stabilizes the wood UNDER a hard finish,as on a pool cue..

I think people like Jim Lucie, Alex Daniels, and Kevin Cashen might disagree with you on the effectiveness of Nelsonite! ...I won't comment too much, as I sell the material, but I do know there are some very high end custom makers (even other than those mentioned above) that prefer it for some applications to the "turn your handle material into a solid polymer block" type stabilization that WSSI or others do. ...I actually like polymer stabilized handle material myself, but Nelsonite is good too, as it leaves the handle material feeling more natural. I know some guys use it on handle materials for $3000+ bowies!

Just a little different viewpoint...
