That's a nice looking pen, Gary. I think the kit finish and decal look great together.

Nice job. Decals done right, like this one, can really make a nice statement.

Hi Gary, sweet looking pen. Do you put a finish over the decal or just glue the decal over the finish? BTW, I have been giving the stone crusher a real workout lately, still working good.

Great looking combo Gary. I have some of the decal material but have not tried to use it as yet. Not getting a lot of shop time in this weather.

I like what you. I'm wondering what a black wood, would look like at the top and bottom of the decal? An all black pen with a maple outline stenciling of the POW?

The Decal sticks to the wood by itself---most of the time.
I put a top coat of Spray Laq. over the decal using a rattle can.

The fishing is good, it's the customers that are scarce, lol.
