A Foxy Pen

[mark james]

This was fun! I was pleased with the result.

Sorby Micro Tools; Abranet up to 600; Micro Mesh (dry) -12K; Hut acrylic polish; buffed with rouge wheel/plain wheel (3x). I kept going to the buffing wheel due to micro scratches - my bad But they did work out fine.

The blanks were hard as a rock and turned nicely. I applied CA to the ends after milling to make sure they were solid.

Tubes and blanks painted dark blue.

All comments and suggestions welcomed (I have a tough skin and want to get better)!
