If anyone is interested in looking, I have just posted some additional pictures of pens I have made in my album.

Please excuse my photography!! I think I need a new camera!!:lol:

Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

I see nothing wrong with the camera. The pin is very attractive, make a good gift.

Cathy,

This one is Bethlehem Olive Wood and the kit is just a plain slimline with gold plating. I have a lot more posted in my album if you would like to check it out.

Thanks,

Mike

I like that, the wood is very pretty. I like the fact that you didn't turn it straight but added some nce contours to it. Looks like it would feel good to write with.

To all,

Thanks for all of the kind comments!!

Fred, to answer your question, I use mostly boiled linseed oil and CA glue in several coats, with PPP or Mylands Friction Polish before the last BLO/CA coat. I am experimenting with other finishes as well.

Thanks,

Mike
