I received this blank in a swap from Canada a few years back. Been waiting for the right time to use it.
High gloss CA finish, just doesn't show it under my lights.
Edit- been a while since I posted here, I can't figure out how to get the pics to show full size.
Like the pen beautiful colour mate.I use a kicker one foot skinny fluro on top of my open frame light box.I choose a full spectrum 6 watt or so lamp. Another interesting way is one side light only.
Neat to drag out the special timbers mate Cheers Brad.I just noticed the round lamp I used to use. I used double tees either side on the frame it allows you to put what you like on top.
