I certainly like it, but I am an opal affectionado from WAY back :D!

Is it actually opalized wood? Never heard of such a thing?!?!

GOT to get me some of THAT :D:D:D:D:D!

Opalac is another poly cast resin with different colors in to give different effects.

They are available in solid blanks or with the 7mm tube already in the centre, so no glueing the tube in, just cut to lenth and trim.

As with all of this style of blanks you will find it very hard to get 2 blanks the same color, they have the same mix but patterns will vary.

Darren vey nice pen.

Beautiful, something I have not seen before. I love the wood, but will try the opalec later.
Cheers, Shirley. :roll:

Hello Darren, looks well shaped, and I am sure the colours look better than that photo, I think the flash obscured some of its beauty, top job as usual. Amos:)
