Wood Turners Finish is one method to a tough, shiny, natural finish of your pens. At this time I am recovering from rotator cuff surgery and I needed something I can do now without a lathe. I had several turned spectra ply pen blanks that did not get finished. I had sanded them to 400 grit on the lathe and cleaned them with DNA. I used small blue towels and hand rubbed the thin WTF finish on each tube and let them dry usually overnight. Between each coat I sanded with 1000 grit at first and later 2000 grit by hand. After drying these for 24 hours I hand rubbed them with EEE-Ultrashine using a small blue towel. Final polishing was done with clean blue towel pieces. The video shows the result.

I'll try this again when CA is not desired.
