Hello everyone,
I've been bitten. I've turned about a dozen pens over the past few weeks. This year's Christmas presents are pens for everyone!!!
I've struggled with finishes and still can't get my CA to work out. Tonight I got frustrated and just stopped trying to make the CA work. I sanded it down and resorted to friction polish. I'm completely happy with the result. I feel like this is my best pen yet.
I'm in the Houston area so turning all "winter" hopefully won't be a problem. Rockler is right across the street from my office too.
I'm hoping to learn from the group on how to achieve those high gloss finishes without wanting to pull my hair out.
