Here are a few new pens I have turned and used a CA finish. The first in chrome is purpleheart with yellowheart. Second is made from a wine barrel from a local winery. Third is from Canadian oak on a cross cut and the fourth is Cocobolo. I love making these.

These look great. Cigar pens are my favorite to turn and build but I enjoy using a click pen instead so I have switched to the Wallstreet II Click pen. I have seen kits for a Cigar-click pen but haven’t purchased any yet.
From what I can tell from your pictures your finish turned out fantastic. That oak cross-cut really stands out as unique. Well done.

Thanks, The cross cut has been a great gift idea and really looks good with any wood. It will split on the tip when pressing into the brass if your not careful.
