Even more Red Oak Burl on
a Navigator Fountain Pen.
Ten dips in Lacquer, this one needed a little polish with Hutts Plastic Polish, it had just a touch of "orange peel" to it and I didn't want to dip it any more, the finish would build up past the hardware size if I did."That's why I love my computer,,,,,,,, my friends live in it."

Nicely done! That finish looks amazing....how does it stand up against the CA finish over time? Or have you had any feedback?

Cant really say, I have only done a few CA finishes, so...
I can say I have had only one pen come back due to finish problems, but that was because it was dropped down a flight of marble stairs in a train station and nicked up bad, she said it hit every single one of them on the way down...sanded, then dipped it again, happy customer!"That's why I love my computer,,,,,,,, my friends live in it."
