Nice set of pens

I, too, will only use enduro from now on. Takes a bit longer than CA, but it's so much easier to get a nice finish. Plus, it isn't so plasic looking as CA tends to look. JMHO

<br />Excellent work Mark, your daughters choice is good i really like the satin against that blank.
I see you are finishing most of your pens with Enduro now, i am the same as you, it is good stuff[:D]

Hi Andrew, after spending ages getting my CA finishing technique down to a fine art, I am getting annoyed with people not believing it is wood under the finish "it doesn`t feel like wood". So Enduro it is from now on![;)]
 
very nice pens i really like the coffee tree burl i have never seen that before. where did you get that? i think i just may have to get some[:D] again very nice!!

Fine work indeed Mark. I also like the coffee tree burl best! That Enduro finish is very good stuff judging by the finish you are getting.

(PS - Top of the World - Carpenters! Classic!![}:)])
 
What is the Enduro finish and how is it applied??? How does it stand up to use??? Someone mention a group buy on this stuff??? Is is a polyurethane???

John - here is a link to where I get mine from, it tells you what Enduro is and how to apply it.

There is also a group buy running in this forum you may want to get involved in.
 
I cannot for the life of me rmember where I bought the Coffee Tree Burl, I have only the one blank that I used for the two Sierras, I am thinking it was a freebie with an order.[:)]
