Had a good time in the garage.
Managed to get 3 pens turned and finished. Using 3 different woods that I have never used before. The Padauk and Indian Rosewood was really nice to turn. The Mesquite was a bit more difficult and I found a couple of holes which I filled with Aluminium Powder and CA.

1. Padauk, kindly donated by Doug. Penkit - Euro Chrome. Finish CA, Micromesh and Mer Wax.

2. Mesquite with some Aluminium. Penkit -JR Gent Chrome. Finish CA, Micromesh and Mer Wax.

[QUOTE="rowdyyates115, post: 34590, member: 152"] Had a good time in the garage. Managed to get 3 pens turned and finished. Using 3 different woods that I have never used before.
