Wow, lots of replies. So here goes - I made a slimline pen today,using an off cut of oak. Took some photos this time, on the iPad. So you can seem my pen number 10. I took photos of making one I made from a piece of yew from my garden but didn't add and words yet.
You can see the one from today on the following link to the iPad journal. https://www.icloud.com/journal/#1;CAEQARoQXKCADRed2jQb8TA0EnAOMA;92AB6430-2E24-4959-86B4-A6153A9C746A
You can click on the photos and zoom in to see I didn't get all the tooling scratches out with the first sand paper.
Constructive comments welcome. It's the first time I used a CA finish - the feel is so different to the previous ones where I just used wax.
