Chrome Epsilon in Chestnut burr...

[bluntchisel]

Hi, Guys,

Made two Epsilons today. This one went OK but the other bugger proved to be a real swine to photograph (as you'll see).

This chestnut was a bit "crumbly" so had to use thin CA to stabilise where necessary. Grits to 600, coat of BLO, and finished with Hut's friction polish.

A little tip re these kits - if you're not happy with your choice of chrome or gunmetal once you've fitted the bits, simply pull off/unscrew all the plated parts and replace with the other alternative. Leave the centre band on the pen mechanism - and fit the replacing parts as you would normally.

Bob.

I like it. It looks a nice kit does that.

Very nice. I think the mix and match elements of gunmetal and chrome on this kit could make for some interesting variants.
