My first attempts at pens!
Hi all,
I am just starting out pen turning and thought I would post some of the first few pens i've done. I still have much to learn, and these pens are taking me around 2 hours each so far. (Out of curiosity, how long does it take you folks?)
I'm using the technique as described on Timberbits blog at the moment. I.e. These are all sanded to 600, applied with Scandinavian Oil and then coated with 20 layers of thin CA and sanded to 12000 micro mesh, then Mirror Glaze polished with Brasso to finish.
Would love to get some feedback on what other techniques/ finishes I can try. To me the Brasso does not seem to be doing anything useful.
