No sanding on this one for that reason. I didn't want discolored holly.Excellent Knot! You did a fine job keeping the holly clear of the Wenge/Rambutan. Very clean appearance.
Thanks for sharing Ken - Happy Easter.
Standard CA, nothing special. Also my new phone takes way better pictures than my old one.
No I didn't really do anything special. Those wenge slices are only .032.great finish and excellent pen
I love wenge but it's very open grain . Did you have to use a filler to smooth it out Ken?
I did make the pen stand. I modified a Steve Good scroll saw pattern. You can get it here. http://www.stevedgood.com/penstand.pdf
That turned out very nice. Used high modified the design as well. Awesome job.Thanks for the pointer. I've got some finishing work to do on this one yet but my nephew saw this piece of woo lying around and thought I needed it. Today I knew what I needed it for
