Folks -
I could have sworn I'd seen a thread on this here at some point, but I can't seem to turn it up. I've had some box elder sitting around for along time, just recently got to cutting it up, and just finished a pen which turned out pretty nicely, so I'd like to make some more. But, since I usually give my pens as gifts, I'm wondering how long the nice color will last. I assume faster change if it sits in sunlight, but are we talking as fast a color change as, say cherry or purpleheart which change in days, or is this a months to years change? And, how does the color end up?
Thanks -
Ken
