Stabilised Spalted Beech Zeta

[webby962]

Just tried my hand at home stabilising. This was a test piece which was a scrap bit of spalted beech, which was really quite punky.
Well, I was very pleased withe the stabilising and the way it turned.
I finished it using the Melamine method, and tuned it into a Zeta.
Overall, for a process test rather than anything else, this turned out to be a rather nice pen, even if I do think so myself.

Looks like a success to me

You are not wrong in your thinking, really well turned out pen all round. Any chance you might share what equipment you used and process/ stabilising fluid?

You will never look at wood the same way again. Many gallons of Cactus Juice later I still enjoy saving wood.
