Giving CA one more chance- Rockler's Stick Fast, and using more than one brand of CA - Page 2

I was having the same problem with my oak burl pens, (one week to two months later a crack or two would show up). The rep. at woodcraft told me to stop using blo. I now only use CA and have not had any problems. He gave me a really good explanation of why the blo can cause those cracks, but I just cant remember what that explanation was.

The problem I have is, I love the color the BLO imparts....

What other options are there to enhance the color?
