Finally finished the series of 11 pens for Subaru. First one is acrylic, the rest are all Buckeye Burl, stablized and dyed blue, I further dyed them blue on the lathe to get closer to the Subaru blue colour. They are all finished in string instrument grade lacquer. I would have used a CA finish but ran out of time and, for these, I liked the lacquer finish.
Pen kits are great to work with-from CSUSA, Buckeye was from PSI and really good quality for the most part, but don't get me started on their shipping system, what a mess that is! Arrived late, even when I paid more for shipping and was guaranteed, I swear I'm sick of complaining to them about their shipping and still it's the worst I've ever seen. I like their products though, good quality stuff.
