My brother in law is down for the weekend. He thought my pens were incredible and thought he would like to try it.
I gave him a demo, then let him choose a wood and a kit. It took a while to make, slow and cautious.
He chose
Green stabilized box elder burl
dressed in a Sterling Silver Baron.
sanded to 600
MM to 12K
7 coats CA/BLO
wet MM to 12K
3 more coats CA/BLO
Plastic polish twice.
I couldn't believe this was his first time on a lathe. I think we will have a new addict. Just have to get him his own lathe.
