Thread: Tried some Wall Street pens

  1. #1

    Tried some Wall Street pens

    Admittedly, I'm feeling rather proud of my pen finishes these days.

    Thanks for looking. Comments welcome.

    Nice finish for sure, Patrick. Ain't it nice to see the gloss come to life? Nice job on both pens.

    Unfortunately I can't see them, but judging from what I've seen from you before I'm sure they are very nice.

    Nice job Patrick. I like the look of the wall street/sierra pen. You should be proud of the finish, it looks good. Is that a CA finish?

    Sorry I forgot to mention it... CA/BLO and then buffed with tripoli and WD. The burl was sealed first with thin CA but not the cocobolo. Thanks for the complement.

    I did my first Wall Street the other day. I did it with deer antler and it turned out OK but the joints weren't as tight as yours.
    Great Job!

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

    You have every right to be proud of those pens...I think the maple burl is one of the best wooden pens I have seen.
    Working for a living is really starting to interfere with my hobbies!
