My first Pen!!!

[Poppers-n-Pens]

Here's my first pen!!! Cozee told me it was Cocobolo. I don't know, I won it at the 2007 Midwest Penturners Gathering in March and it wasn't labeled. The picture doesn't do it any justice as it got washed out for some reason.

I used Cozee's CA finish and got those lovely, yet infamous, reflection lines. I can vouch that it is a pretty easy finish. I coudn't believe how simple it really was. I was dumbfounded.

He has requested my assistance in creating a video tutorial for this finish. We will post more info when the tutorial is complete.

This is the start of a wonderful hobby! Any advice you can give me would be great.

Thanks.

Nice looking, but I think the original photo is even better than the enhanced one.

Excellent job for it being your "first" time! Be sure you keep it for your memory chest and to see your advancements made in this (dare I call it... ) hobby! []
