Good evening fellow pen turners,
I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday season. I'm looking for some opinions on worm holes. Should the holes be filled with sanding dust before applying the ca finish or just leave the holes empty and finish with ca. I know it is personal preference, but I just finished a pen with buckeye burl with a worm hole in it and I didn't fill the hole before applying finish. I can't decide if I like it or if the hole looks like a defect in the wood. Any suggestions or opinions welcomed.
Thanks, Tim
