Hi all
Just finished an experiment with German Bog Oak. I have used a Dremel with a very fine wire wheel to remove the soft summer growth to leave textured but smooth surface, so lets have your honest opinion , hit or miss, do i continue down this line.
The finish is Mylands friction polish which i use on all my pens and have done for years. Not a lover of CA as it make items look like Plastic and if i want Plastic I turn it.[ATTACH]6473[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6474[/ATTACH]
