First of all, yes, I am a newbie. Okay, and yes I mainly use Crystal Coat and/or Liquor finish on my pens thus far. I love the glass finishes that I see in many of your pictures and would like to duplicate them, but all the articles I read involve multiple steps, sand, application, re-sand, over and over. I have seen a lot of CA/BLO finish articles, but am a little skeptical. To me, using glue as a finish just sounds strange. I can't help but think that over the years someone has not perfected a process or product that will give a pen the quality and durability due to these beautiful works of art.
Enough of the rant and wining, please do not skin me alive. I know that much time needs to be spent on a great, respectable presentation finish, I just think that in 2007 there surly is a product that will give a very decent and lasting gloss finish.
Okay, let the roasting begin on the newbie...
