Sad to say I am not one who learns from reading . And video does not show me enough. Would be nice if I could find someone who could show me personally how to do either a BLO/CA or just CA finish. For some reason I think (I hope) a more hands on approach might help me more.

There's an Oklahoma local chapter of IAP. Maybe someone local to you from there can show you?
Our local (to Albuquerque) Woodcraft store does a lot of penturning classes, including the CA finish for those who have completed the basic penturning.
For me, nothing beats being taught in person. I tried to teach myself by experimenting, but there were a couple of tricks that I picked up from a live instructor.
A couple of words of warning, though: Be sure you have eye protection and hand protection (i.e. nitrile gloves). (Especially the hand/finger protection. DAMHIKT!)
