First Bog Oak pen

[VotTak]

Make my first Bog Oak pen.
Try to finish it in CA but then removed CA and finish it with Pen Plus.
Please let me know your thoughts.
I am very bad photographer but anyway:

What happened with the CA finish attempt?

What happened with the CA finish attempt?

It started to look like a piece of black shiny plastic. Wood itself is too dark black. Di not see any grain. It was not look like wood anymore.

Good call. I did a piece of dark ebony but used BLO and CA for a matte finish. Black and shiny is if you are going for a particular look but the drawback is it shows scratches and dust too easily.
