    Another Civil War Pen

    Here is a satin Civil War Pen done in USA acrylic from Arizona Silhouette. I finished with MM, plastic polish and Ren wax.

    Neat!

    Can you make one that looks like a cannon when it is in the holder?

      Beautiful job, Dick.

      What brand of plastic polish do you use and do you have any tips or tricks for applying it, please?

        Thanks for the compliment Ray.
        I use Hut Ultra Gloss but have used marine fiberglass cleaner/wax with good results. I know that some use Brasso and swear by it. I turn the lathe to about medium speed and put a drop about the size oh a nickle on a piece of paper towel. Run the pad back and forth for a minute or so and then buff with a clean paper towel. A touch of Ren wax finishes it.
