Afternoon,

A few months ago I got hold of a bunch of pre-drilled blanks from Turners Workshop - Vintage Cellulose Acetate no less. Not sure of the name of this one - looks like it might be
a caramel swirl sort of name.
Just sanded from 400 to 12000 and then Meguiars Scratch X polish.

Turned out well I guess. As ever, critiques and comments please.

Nice match Chris.:thumbs:
I haven't used that kit but the tubes I have, I can't remember the reference either but still have some as I bought a number of full length tubes in different patterns some time ago. It's a bit strange to think you're using material that could be 100 years old.
