Vintage Cellulose Acetate

[keithncsu]

Thanks to Keith (mrburls) I was able to recently purchase some of this vintage cellulose acetate. Big thanks to both Keith and John (jalbert) for their advice on the questions I asked them. Paired the blank with an all black Sierra so that the blue would stand out more. Once turned to final dimensions, I wet sanded from 400-1500 and then used MicroMesh all the way to 12,000. Then I put a couple of coats of Plastx after that. I'm thinking this one will be in my pocket for a few days.

Thanks everyone!

John, it hasn't left my pocket since Saturday so that's a good bet it's going to be there! HA!

Hey Keith! Looks good! Glad it all worked out for you! It's a good feeling to make something and then never have it leave your pocket!
