Thread: Sierra Titanium in Cypress from Bunnings

Very nice very nice indeed

Amos so you had no problem with the ca over wax??
Toni

That is one impressive pen mate you have done it justice.

Froggie

Toni, So far no problems, Depending on the wood I put 1 or 2 coats or more if needed (eg wood with deep natural cracks and gaps etc). then if ca needs a little sanding back I do that, then put on EEE and Shellawax, then CA again and then finish with EEE and Shellawax, often the CA finish on top of the Shellawax is good enough, but I just love EEE and Shellawax.!
Thanks Froggie

Wow!! Reall nice you have made one hell of a pen

Must get down to Bunnies and have look at these palings

That is a really beautiful piece of wood and you have shown it at its best Amos. Not to mention the excellent photographs. All-rounder beautiful. Thank you.

That finish is fabulous! That's something I still have to work on.

Great work!!

Another bewdy from the house of Amos

G'day Amos,
It is sad to believe that somebody was going to waste that piece of perfectly good wood on a fence. That is a great pen, and the finish reminds me I still have a lot of room to improve. Well done.


Cheers,

Rick

Thanks fellas, Scroll I too still have a ways to go, there are some finishes that folks have shared on the forum that i would like to try. Amos

Scroll,

that just shows ya what terrific fences we have in Australia, so terrific, in fact, that they are now making them outa corrugated sheeting cos penmakers kept stealing the palings and pickets.

Tashammer, you hit the nail on the head, i find myself checking the fences when I go for a walk!!?? Strange, a lot of palings are missing along the bike path, maybe you pen turners got there before me!!!

Lovely work!

Inspirational, thank you.

Looks wet and I am surprised that the CA stuck to the wax, obviously I have a lot to learn with just one pen under my belt ).

For a while there, people were coming home to discover that someone had pinched all the copper plumbing from under their house. Now, they're discovering absent fences and every 2nd stump missing from under the house!

G'Day Amos

Great use of something readily available. If you are going to sell them they can be called "paling pen"

Cheers
