Nice work on the pen, including choice of blank material. I have not seen that kit in the Black Ti hardware, and it seems to take an "over the top" kit, and make it MORE "over the top", which on this kit is good!

Beautiful Pen and blank!

Did you sand between coats of spray-0n? I use Wipe-On-Poly, but last week started to experiment with spray on poly as well as lacquer. Both seemed to be a nice option.

Glorious Pen, Thomas.
The Matching of the Box Elder Burl, and the Art Deco Pen is Inspiring.
It expresses the Era Perfectly.
Superb Fit and Excellent Finish.
Congratulations,
Brian.

No sanding between coats, the trick is very light coating , leave half an hour then repeat , i only put on a maximum of 4 to 5 coatings .
