This is a group of 28 of 32 pens that I've turned for Canadian Peacekeepers. They are all 7mm Streamlines, plated in either Gold or Chrome.
For some of the pens I used the kit supplied centreband, for others it's my version of a turned centreband. All pens are outfitted with the regular Cross cartridge as well as a spare Cross Private Reserve refill from Indy Pen Dance!
The pens have been finished with a minimum of 6 coats of Monty's Med. CA. They were spritzed with accelerator after the 3rd and 6th coats of CA. I lightly rubbed them down with 0000 steel wool before buffing them on my homemade 3 wheel Caswell buffing machine using Formax Plastic Glo (Ultra-fine & Extra fine) buffing compound.
