Ok here are my 1st 4 pens. I had never turned anything before this. Just learned from what I have read online. I know the photos arn't good I am working on that. Let me know what you think. I would like to know the truth. I am sure I need work but need to know where. I will try to get better photos and some close up pictures.
1st pen - back right not sure of the wood maybe you guys can tell me.
Just used a wax finish so it has lost its shine.
2nd pen - back left not sure about the wood. Finish is CA with BLO then wax with a polish.
3rd pen - front left this is maple with a oil finish to try to pull the grain and then CA and wax over that.
4ht pen - front right this is a Oak Blur that I cut from a log I had into blanks. Finished with Oil to bring out the grain then CA then with wax polish.
