Couple of pens

Finally figured out how to take an almost decent picture. First is my first corn cob pen. Wow, does it get hard with the CA! Took about an hour to sand it. Second is a Chrome Atlas, home stabilized maple burl.

I had to touch up my gouge three times before I was done!

They both look great. I'm not sure I would have the patience for those corn cob pens!

Love them both,
Got to find a white corn cob!
Never considered CA overly hard when I use it as a stabilizer.
I use a sharp skew and it cuts down the sanding.
