Have several kits to finish for the craft mall. I had turned a cocobolo blank for a Slimline, rubbed acetone to cut the oil. Then I put on a coating of thin CA. OK, put on another and it looked like the cows chewed it. Finally, after much fiddling and trying different things, got it squared away. May look at it again and add a couple more coats. Second blank was zebra wood with a coarse, open grain. One coat of thick CA to fill in the grain and a shot of accelerator. Second coat, same thing. Had to sand off the CA and start over after much contemplation. Then it hit me. Hard! I looked back at the past. I recall setting the stopwatch for a minute as a minimum to add another coat. Duh! Started over with the zebra wood, thin coat, one minute, second coat, one minute. May add a couple of more coats tomorrow afternoon. Simple, isn't it?
