    A Busy weekend.

    They look great.

    I'm no expert in photography but I suggest better lighting to highlight the pens more and shows off your craftsmanship better.

    Cheers

    Thanks very much,

    The 2ndpen in the 2nd photo ( the pen with a round top) is a chrome European Pen Kit from Timberbits dressed in Acrylic - Orange with White Crush also from Timberbits
    The 2nd pen in the first photo is a ExecutiveTwist Pen Kit from www.woodturningz.com. I purchased 10 kits to try them out. The pen is dressed in some scape hardwood I had in my shed.
    I hope that a Australian supplier will start stocking the ExecutiveTwist Pen Kit as they are a very good pen to make.

    Wow you have been busy and they look great as well. What on earth is the blank you used on the middle pen in the second photo. it looks like an acid trip
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    Thanks for the reply Dave1. I am just starting in pen turning and I like the look of that pen and the Sierra - will give them a try.
