Hey guys, so tonight I was convinced to try my hand at a CA glue finish. I personally like a more natural wood finish like Hut's Crystal Coat gives, but the boss wanted something shinier. What the boss wants, the boss gets
In the photo there are two pens, the first one I did tonight was the dark wood one (wood came from a mystery bag so I don't know what it is ) Since that was going to be my "experimental" pen, I decided to experiment with the shape as well!
The second Pen is the maple pen segmented with a piece of the same sort of dark wood. This is my first attempt at segmenting and I think it actually turned out okay. I finished it using the knowledge gained on the first pen (as in, don't rub paper towel on the CA glue too soon... it may become part of the pen!) Additionally, the maple pen is going to my wife's boss as a b-day present.
Anyway, Tonight I really enjoyed my turning time and can't wait to do some more!
Chris
