Very good looking pen! What do you do with all of the pens you make?

Another beautiful pen Dick. Question about the finish: I know what the BLO is but what is the CA? Is it mixed together for the application? How do you apply it?

I give a lot away but I have my ballpoints on consignment at a local gift shop and my rollerballs and fountain pens at a jewelry store.

Richard ca is super glue.
I use a dab of blo and a drop of ca on a paper towel and rub it on while the piece is spinning. After 6 or so coats I use a plastic polish and then wax.
There is a great vidio that I learned it from but I can't find the link right now.

Thanks Dick. Right now I just making things round and trying to put a little shape to it. I'm getting lots of kindling for the fire pit, but it's nice looking kindling
