Hi All - my wife has a project that involves 48 x 3/4" dowels that require a point on one end - so they can be driven into sand or soft soil. She's bought a few dowels and wants me to put a point on one end. If her project is successful, we'll be doing this to hundreds of dowels, and the point needs to look smooth and professionally done.
I've no wood working experience, so what kind of tool do I need to purchase - a lathe ? In my mind's eye I can picture a giant electric pencil sharpener, but don't know if those exist..
Would I be better to order the dowels pre-worked from some kind of wood working shop.
Thanks in advance for your help.......
Mark
