I've had my first pen returned.. of course, its also the most expensive sale I've made :frown:
The pen (DI Burl) with 3 coats of CA, has developed 5 or 6 significant cracks, with no pattern (ie not along grain, etc)
First, has any one had this happen before? Could it be from mis-treatment? Dropping? Either way, I want to save it, keep the customer happy, but I'm a bit baffled.
2nd, I've managed to disassemble it, (no easy feat, yay me ) and want to refinish it, but its likely going to be smaller than the hardware afterwards. Should I just try building it up with CA again...?
All suggestions/comments greatly appreciated!
