Yes! A small blowtorch.  Start far away and just make passes with it til you began to see it alter the finish.  Definitely practice on a scrap piece (or nine:-)).  I use to make acrylic display stands for custom art objects and artifacts. Cast acrylic and even extruded acrylic will polish easily this way.  Just don't get to close and melt it.

You can us a torch to polish acrylic. 

That's what Austy was saying. Guess I need to read up it before the next one. I'm one of those guys that when I get it in my head I just go for it. No research, you tube or anything else. Just do it.

I am the opposite and try to head off snags before they happen, but I appreciate the way you work.  Sometimes I get caught up and have to remind myself to jump in.  You can read all ya want about swimming but you don't know how until you get in the water.   

I have never done the torch method on acrylics but I have seen it done with outstanding success.  I made a few pens with acrylic and the smell ran through my house.  It was enough to irritate my otherwise calm wife.  She puts up with a lot of bad smells and ear piercing noises in my house already so I stay away from the stuff now.

Rick that's just the way I am. Hard headed and school of hard knocks. I do my turning in the garage so there's no bad smalls or dust in the house.

Congrats Bill, glad you were able to pull it off. Wish I could see the finished call and would love to hear it. You taking orders for acrylic pots yet?

I guess because it could be used as a wetone call if I wanted to. I'll be doing an aluminum and a slate as well.

[Rick Howard]

Awesome!

I love the sound of that call! Will you be selling these?

I'll be honest. I'm not sure yet. I need to turn a few more of these and figure a few things out. This for me was one of the toughest pots I have turned but when it was said and done by far one of my best glass calls to date. I really like this call.
