Looks great. My wife even saw it over my shoulder and said "wow". Is that finished with CA? I don't imagine you sanded it with those contrasting colors.

Very, very nice Charlie. Love the choice of timbers and the precision.

Very nice. I'm impressed. It's really hard to keep Padauk from bleeding over onto a light colored wood like that. Great Job - Dave

Whoa! That's intense!

 

[EricRN]

Very pretty.

No color bleed I sometimes get from Paduk when next to maple.

Impressive.

Dave: Only way I have been able to control Paduk bleed to stabilize first, no sanding ,turn with very sharp skew on the shear mode. Work well on pens. On vessels I stabilize and shear cur with gouge. no sanding.

Wish I would have read this before turning my first padauk blank. It looked ugly before sanding. The bleeding onto the sap sucked because I love the contrast between sap and the main wood. The pen looks nice but I knew it bled.
