4-5-12 Two Pens This Week
Didn't have enough time last week to post last week so here is last weeks pen as well as this weeks. Last week was a Polaris pen in Red Gum and this weeks pen is another Bullet Pen dressed in Fiddleback Beech. Thanks for looking.

Both look great. If I may add, the Polaris seems to be slightly overturned at the tip. I am not sure what finish you used but you may consider using the finish to build it back up if it is possible. Either way nice work.

I have been watching your progression over some time now Timbo. You have the basics behind you now.. Someone suggested earlier in one of your posts to try CA finish, that will give a different dimension to your finish. Keep going with what you are doing.

That is just an optical illusion or Barry's terrible photography. The finish is the usual EEE & Shellawax. The time that I have to work with the finish has to be pretty quick but I will get Barry to help me doing a different finish.
