I just made my first two pens (both acrylic) and I had some problems. The first one has several gouges, but they are mostly poor turning technique on my part. The second I felt very good about but not entirely pleased. I turned to size and then saw that there were numerous small rough spots, like I had whittled the pen rather than turned it. After applying Novus 1 and 2 I got a fairly consistent surface, but it's not perfect. How do you get a perfectly flat, uniformly smooth surface on acrylic? New to this and I want to learn right the first time so thanks in advance for any info.
