El Grande Ramone

[OKLAHOMAN]

Turned this from the bag of cut off recived from Darrel (Chitswood). Filled all the voids with Verdi that I got from Hobby Lobby. Not to happy with the finish (BLO/CA) . Will disassemble some day and refinish

Janet; The product is called Embossing Antiquities Verdigris and sell at Hobby Lobby for $2.99 a 21 gram bottle. I mixed it with 2 part 5 min epoxy and filled the voids. You use very little to color the epoxy,just a small pile on the end of a popsical stick, I would guess you can do 30-40 pens with aslarge voids as I had with one 21 gram container

How solid of a pen would you say this is?

Colors look great!

 

[chitswood]

I don't remember selling any cutoffs though, was it your Bday?

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

No not my b'day!! forum auction! And the pens are fragile, the first one I turned cracked when I used the pen press on it, but that being said I like them and have learned to apply ca as I turn. By the way my b'day is next month HINT! HINT!
