A Couple Of Jnr Gents
Managed to get a bit more shed time on the weekend, but with christmas only a sneeze away i am guessing there wont be too much more so i made the most of what i had
1. Jnr Gent Fountain Pen - Black Ti - Buckeye Burl - i love this stuff
2. Jnr Gent Fountain Pen - Rhodium - Home Brew - looks like molten metal
both came up really good, very happy
i look forward to your replies
thanks
MIK

I love both of them, but the buckeye is sensational! Remarkable finish you've managed and your presentation is outstanding. Well done.
When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

the finsh on the buckeye burl is 4 coats medium CA, 6 coats of thin CA, buffed on a rag wheel with Suttons white buffing compound
the resin is micro mesh to 12000, then buffed as above
