Here are my first 2 pens since I've had to give up using a CA finish. The finish on these is basically Mylands Friction Polish. I put on 2 coats of the sanding sealer. I allowed that to set overnight (because I was exhausted ;)) and followed it up with 4 coats of the FP. Finally, polished through 4000 grit and buffed with White Diamond and Carnuba.

I'm still experimenting so I won't go into detail steps until I know it is going to last. Anyway, I hope you like them.

The slimline is a trade for some cherry pen blanks that a fellow member of our club won at the raffle. He doesn't turn pens so he gave them to me in exchange for the pen. I used one of his blanks for his pen.

The Designer is a birthday gift to a good friend from my church.

Take Care, Chuck.

Very nice. Your friend will love the gift. I gave all of my brothers and sisters pens and wine bottle stoppers for Xmas this last year and they were the hit of the holiday.
