Casting a beach treasure blank with paua abalone and mother of pearl
Переглядів 7573 місяці тому
In this video, Chantelle casts a "beach treasure" blank with paua abalone, mother of pearl, and a beach shell. This blank was cast in two parts. First, the transparent portion to cover the abalone. Once cured, the mother of pearl portion was added on top. This was a fun one and I learned a lot about casting in the process (there were a few failed attempts before getting this final result)!

    I was in Hawaii and this guy had wood pens with a glass finish. I asked if he used CA and he said he hasn't use CA in 10 years. Do you know of any element that you can use to give a glass finish?

    • @WilliamWoodWriteLtd
      @WilliamWoodWriteLtd 19 годин тому

      CA is by far the glossiest finish I've used. There's a friction polish by Doctor's Woodshop called "Pens Plus". You can build it up to a fairly shiny finish while maintaining a more natural feel to the wood. The Super Gloss friction polish by PSI is another glossy friction polish. I'm curious to know what this guy used!

      It was a plastic pen tube that we had laying around in the shop. It worked really well for fitting the square wood portion. They're sold in packs of 10: www.penblanks.ca/medium-clear-plastic-pen-tubes-10-pack. The only downside is that you can't reuse them.

    Some great tips in there for budding pen turners. Well done. I ran out of plastic polish one day and had to get some pens ready for the next day. Racking my brain as to what I could use and it suddenly come to me, I tried tooth paste and was pleased with the finished result. I use tooth paste all the time now.

    I have destroyed 2 of these pen kits because I couldn't get them to work. First time I pushed the transmission in to the lower part and the transmission wouldn't twist, it was just grinding. The second one because I couldn't get the pen apart to fix it. The refill just isn't long enough.

    Beautiful work, great video, thanks. But you don't need to cross sand if you are using the correct progression of sanding grits. That being, increasing each next grit by 50% from the previous grit used. Besides cross sanding would just leave sanding marks going in the other direction. Try it.

    I noticed that you’re only using the EEE and shellax finish. Does this rub off when people use the pen?

    • @WilliamWoodWriteLtd
      @WilliamWoodWriteLtd Рік тому

      The Shellawax is actually quite a durable finish. It's used as a friction polish. It has a hardener in it which is activated by heat generated during application. It goes through a cross-linking process where the hardener fuses to the raw wood. It's dry to touch almost immediately but the hardening process takes up to 3 weeks to complete
