    The Jarrah and computer are commissions
    The cherry burl is a repayment for a favour from a forumite
    the others ... because I could

    I think I have the hang of the dipping - seems to give a great finish, but does take some time

    They look good Nick. I especially like the Purpleheart and the cherry burl - but all are very good. Your results with the dipping look fantastic too! I will have to try it one year....

    Cheers,
    Nathan.

    Looking at your pens has me rethinking the CA finish. Very nicely done.
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

    Neat pens

    The laquer dipping does look fantastic... glad it's coming together for you.

    Cheers,
