Photos Fresh off the lathe. . . .

Careful what you wish for!

He he he he! Finally got around to responding to your email, was sick for a while. Am doing better now.

Turned a handful of pens today and refinished a few. Am learning more and more about the Lathe Chisels that I have and how to use them. Practicing finishing the wood, etc. After sanding from 120 to 600 grits, I use EEE-Ultra Shine. It's like a wax based sanding medium. After that I apply Friction polish. 4 to 10 coats does the trick. Sometimes I sand between coats. Pictures of some new pens to follow in the next day or two. It's bed time now.
 
Tried something different, it don't write for beans but it should work great for spreading butter or I can't believe it's no butter as the case may be.
Little more finish work but close. Didn't take long neither.
