Chrome and satin sierra with a black and pearl acrylic from woodcraft. One of the old woodcraft blanks. Had a hell of a time with painting the blank. Had started off using aluminum color paint hoping for a lighter color. After turning the first blank i noticed some brass color showing through. Also loked like some piling up of aluminum paint under the blank. Tryed again and let the blank sit for a couple of days and when i went to mill the ends it spun and the tube started to come out the other side, so i removed the old tube, prepped and painted another(with my gloss black paint this time)and viola! here it is.Dont know why the aluminum paint wouldnt stick but have done quite a few acrylics and not had any problem with the paint or tubes messing up. Any ideas welcome.P.S.-i used two part epoxy-the only thing i use to glue tubes in.
