Anyone here turn Argentine Lignum Vitae wood? I'm turning a pen out of some "Argentine Lignum Vitae". It is green in color before it went on the lathe. After turned it is a very nice caramel color. Pretty, but not the color I want for this pen kit. I have read that it will go back to its green color over time when exposed to air. My question is........would putting a CA finish on the turning prevent it from going back to it's green color? Or should I wait a while after turning it to finish it with CA?
