I placed my first order with Turn Tex and received my order in just a few days. I used the Cactus Juice to stabilize some burls for turning blanks. I will definately order from Turn Tex again!

Easy check out. Has about everything you could need. I'll be back soon ;)

To be honest, I was a little skeptical that at home stabilization could be as good as professional stabilization, but with Catu Juice, it pretty much has been for the softer woods I've used it on.  If you can pull a decent vacuum, and either have a pressure chamber or the patience to let a piece soak for  good amount of time, you can get resin impregnation every bit as deep as a pro job.  I've been using it on punks spalted woods and redwood burl, and couldn't be happier.

This was my third or fourth order of Cactus Juice. Delivery is always fast. The product works perfectly. I've had exceptional success doing burls and hardwoods, even some Heart Pine blanks.

Thanks!

I recently tried Cactus Juice for the first time. I have tried others before and find the Cactus Juice to be excellent and like it very well. It works fantastic, and the info and tips on the page are great. Thanks Curtis!!

Hi Chris, just pick up the chamber and fresh gallon of juice at the post office, made my first test this morning, just wow! I have been using Cactus juice for just about 4 years and was using a chamber that I had built on my own, it was an okay chamber but could not reach the ultimate vacuum. A message to all of you who are not decided, I should have bought the Turntex chamber 4 years ago, worth every $ spent, reached -28 in no time. Great product, recommend it. Serge

I just want to say thank you for the excellent service I received on my recent purchase. I received my order as fast as can be expected due to not being able to transport the Alumilite by air. It was only 7 days from the time I placed the order until I received it.

Job well done. I will be ordering again.

Great selection of items for stabilizing and resin casting. My order shipped on the same day I ordered. 

Really enjoy doing business with you.....clearly a man of integrity.

having any questions answered about a product is as important as the product itself in my view. When I I had extra questions about. Cactus Juice stabilize, my phone message was returned soon and all questions answered. That’s the feature I look for and appreciate.  Curtis, thanks for your help. 

Thanks for the awesome service and fast turn around. Great company and look forward to doing more business in the future.

I ordered a chamber kit along with some Cactus Juice and a few other items. I need to say that the scheduled delay/lead time (posted visibly on the website) was 4-6 weeks. I understand that I was ordering at the same time many others were placing orders, so I waited. My order took longer than expected, and I was a bit nervous that something had happened to my order. I was not very happy that it took longer than expected, but I did indeed receive my order.

What can I say? Expect delays in processing, but don't worry. Curtis and his company are the real deal. When my order finally arrived, I opened the box and saw nothing short of quality. A friend of mine said the chamber looked "laboratory grade". And indeed, it is all worth the wait. It all functions like it should, and is very well made. No issues as I have already made my first batch of stabilized wood without problems. (While wearing my TurnTex "Redemption" shirt and drinking water from the TurnTex "Redemption" cup. Thanks Curtis)

The company redeemed itself by supplying a product that is far superior to anything else on the market. I have already ordered (and received) more items. So ask yourself this; How long should you wait for a superior quality product? My answer would be; Until it is delivered if it is from TurnTex!

Outstanding. This company has my business. Thanks to Curtis and everyone else at the company.

This is my second order and I’m as happy as I was the first time. Great product, easy to use, fantastic results. If you follow Curtis’ instructions, it’s foolproof! I’ll be ordering again soon

Once again my order was promptly filled and shipped and delivered in record time. 

Very helpful with any questions you might have. I have a vacuum chamber now and have bought at least 6 gallons already. I am Addicted to Cactus Juice. 

If you are new to Turn Tex Woodworks, you are going to be very pleased that you stopped here. Curtis Seebeck and his staff are the most helpful and punctual people that you will ever meet. Every order is processed and shipped punctually and always arrives in perfect condition. The thing that I like more than this is the personal help that you find on this site and other Facebook sites that Curtis writes in. He is a book full of information about everything that he sells and participates in. These are GOOD people selling GOOD products. Larry Chaney, Douglas, GA

 

I had an issue with a batch of juice stabilizing inside my chamber.  YIKES!  I have used at least 4 gallons of Cactus Juice over the past couple of years and had never experienced this.  I called Curtis, who knew exactly what had occurred.  He took the time to help explain the issue (curing inside chamber due to outdoor temperatures being elevated) and offered solutions for my specific situation.  He took the time to answer a couple of other questions I had in regards to moisture content of wood and drying process, etc.  I look forward to making a couple of adjustments and running another batch this weekend!

THANKS CURTIS!

Ordering from Turntex is an easy and fast process.  Shipping is fast and the personnel super friendly and helpful.  My son and I will continue to use this service.

 

Toujours un plaisir de travailler avec vous. Vous portez une attention toute particulière à chaque client, merci.

I ordered when Curtis had a warning on his website on his website that he was away.  He stated that even though he was away, The shipments were going to processed as normal.  This was my first time ordering and I'm still working on my setup so it's not that big of a deal for me.  

I ordered and received notice from UPS that the shipment was on the way that day.  Awesome

I also ordered the complete setup for the vacuum pump.  I haven't been able to test it yet because the Amazon decided to destroy my vacuum pump in the delivery.  Once I get my vacuum pump, I'll be able to check it out.  I do know that I looked on Amazon for the little flare to 1/4" mip adapter and I couldn't find one (while Curtis was out of stock)  That setup is a great value.

I'm a very satisfied customer.

We were able to pick up our order directly at TurnTex. What a grand time we had. Curtis listened to what we wanted to do, explained things, showed us things, gave us a mini-lesson in vacuum chamber. This is the place for you to go for stabilizing supplies and equipment. Curtis knows his stuff, and makes sure you'll get the best of everything. I can't recommend TurnTex enough.

Curtis has super customer service and some of the fastest shipping around! Will be a long time customer! Thank you!!!

Very satisfied on how fast my shipment arrived and, Curtis answered any questions I had.

Quick response to questions and excellent service. Will be doing much more business with Turn Tex.

I ended up buying a half gal and a pint of cactus juice total.  The pint I added purple dye to and ended up separating another pints worth out of the half gal and added some green.  I have stabilized some natural, some purple, and am currently baking some green.  The green batch has a natural/green mix I am looking forward to.  So far everything has turned well, and I need to buy more to set up more colors.  I will be a return customer from here on out.  Thanks again!!!

I couldn't be happier with the customer service and the quality products from Curtis at TurnTex Woodworks.  The products were delivered as promised and the quality of workmanship was beyond expectations.  All of my questions concerning use of these products were answered thoroughly and with clear explanations.  I give this company a 5+ STAR rating!!  Jim D.  Fishers, Indiana 

I received a shipping confirmation email 14 minutes after placing an order. Fast is an understatement. Product (Cactus Juice) works as well as all of the other reviews says it does. I am still fighting with my pressure pot to try the Alumilite. But, that is not a reflection of the service I received from Curtis. When it is time to replenish stock, I will buy here again. 

 

Thanks again Curtis,

Awesome products and customer service! Curtis will always have my business for my stabilizing and Alumilite needs. 

Turntex is my go-to for all stabilizing and casting needs! Curtis makes a great product (Cactus Juice) and carries only the best for casting - Alumilite Resin. The orders are always shipped quickly, and if you ever had a question needing answered, Curtis is quick to help you out!

Curtis O. Seebeck and Turntex are like a good Wine, I have been ordering his products for about 5 years and the service and products are getting better and better. His knoledge and expertise on the matter of stabilizing and casting is second to none. Thank You Curtis and Staff

We had quick order process, quick processing and shipment! Great product information was included in shipment. Thanks again for your helpful videos as well.

Great stuff!!!  Easy to use and affordable, a little bit goes a long ways.  

Very fast turn shipping on my order of Alumilite. Also, impressed of how fast Curtis answers any questions I had.

Having had a great year of sales last year with custom cast products, I felt it was time to expand my lineup.

From ease of ordering, to the in depth explanations and short videos found in his help section.  I have great respect for Mr. Seebeck.  Im now on my second batch of stabilized materials.  Completely satisfied with my results so far, as well as the outstanding customer support setup.  I’m now a new loyal customer.

Well done sir!  Looking forward to my next order.

i am just getting started with the whole casting and stabilizing so this order was just 6 casters choice but I love them and everyone loves the blanks made with them. I will be ordering the other 23 colors very soon and looking forward to getting my chamber and juice very soon also. with all the fb praise and neil's testimonial I know I can trust Curtis to provide the best support for the best products. thanks again and look forward to future business with you!

I ordered the vacuum chamber kit and it arrived timely and good shape.  What I was most impressed was I had a question about something I forgot to put in my order, and my text was responded to almost immediately!  My question was answered and I was happy. I will definitely buy from TurnTex again.

i Just have to say that there is no substitute for Turn-Tex products. Absolute quality and attention to detail. Not to mention Curtis is one of the best business owners that really takes care of his customers. He is  always there to give advise or answer questions with just a phone call. Which is very rare nowadays. Customer for life. 

Curtis - the company owner is a very good guy to work with. He is very flexible to work with the customers for any possible cooperation. Really appreciated.

well packaged and received in good condition

The products are always great and the service is even better. 

  I recently received my first batch of Cactus Juice.  This past weekend I ran a small batch of pens blanks through the new vacuum chamber with the Cactus Juice.  When the process was completed, I turned one of the blanks.  What a joy it was!  I'll be purchasing more when this is gone.

Great fast delivery

I expected a short delay in receiving my order as is customary in online order. Fast turnaround and got exactly what I ordered. I will defiantly order again.

 

This was one of multiple purchases from turntex.   As usual it went smoothly and the product arrived in short order.  Thank you again .
