Froze something!
I pulled some late night duty in my workshop the Christmas so I feel your pain! Excellent job on the pen. Really nice color on that wood.

Bob....they make heaters you know....
I turn on my wall mounted heater(natural gas 30,000BTU), and wait inside next to the coffee pot....
You did well, I always wondered if there were issues with doing a CA finish when it was below freezing(I ain't gonna try though)!!

Nice pen Bob. We are definitely getting into winter here too. Nice to see you work with wood.

CA works at that temp only if you create some friction or use activator. I think i could squirt some on the bench and it would still be soft the next day. eventually it hardens though
