These are turned and sanded but need sections and to be polished.
Ebonite that looks like topography. I really like this one despite how I felt initially
Alumilite. I had this idea for something fantasy related and man I hope I find my pour notes. I really like this one too
I will post an update when I finish them.
Cheers.
First kitless pen from some hybrid blanks I cast a while ago. For a first try it turned out great, I actually had to toss another blank that I fractured cutting the tenon on the first go around, and another one when my drill chuck came loose (oops!). I haven’t made a section for it yet. I’ll probably make a rollerball section since I didn’t integrate a liner into the body on this one.
I got a little impatient on the finish out, the wood came out fine but the epoxy still could use a little more effort on the sanding.
A longtime friend’s wife was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. I asked my friend if his wife might a bespoke pen to celebrate her strength. He said she would love it and 18 hours later I am looking at this pen.
The separation if colors came out as intended. I don’t love the cap and may remake it tomorrow. I will need to do a stepped drill so I can contour the shape I want.
What ink would you pair with this. I plan to send a nice journal the pen and ink. Appreciate the brain trust here
Cheers.
Was inspired by what I see in early fall. Green and gold as fall makes its way to the southeast with hints of red/pink from some of the maples. Here is stock art image if that gives a reference.
