Braid .....

Some of my Braided Polymer Bolt Action pen blanks I finished up for a customer.
No finishing needed, just install the fittings.
Have a great tactile feel to them.

Great !!

What glue do you use between the braided polymer and the brass tube ?

I kinda think you developed a somewhat special technique to do the gluing in order to avoid "squishing" glue through to the outside of the braid.

I'm curious too.

Lovely blanks Les. Well done.

Beautifully done! And they look like they belong on the bolt action pen

Mal,
I use BSI Super Thin CA to anchor the braid to the tube ends.
