Great looking pen Johnny, i find Thuya can be a little problematic at times, but always looks good on a pen kit .. :thumbs:

Lovely stuff Johnny - Like Jim said Thuya can be problematic, in fact for me as I am a Paulm CA disciple (he wouldn't let me leave until I took the vow not to use anything else :funny:) it always caused problems until I discovered wiping it with meths and Bingo never had an issue since. Hope that helps

I know, i first applied a craft coat finish , but could not get a good finish kept rippling , do not like ca finish so used friction polish and wax finish .
