    Default Claro Walnut

    Finished with 6 coats of Med CA and buffed with extra fine steel wool to knock down the shine and get a satin finish. Dressed up with a Vertex Black Titanium/Platinum click ballpoint.

    hiya Les

    nice piece of walnut, it has some great character

    i have always wondered with the vertex component sets, is it easy to get the flats on the sides to line up when assembling???

    all the best
