    Default acrylic rollerball + bonus

    it takes a weekend to turn pens, but then a week to photograph and upload them.
    here is last weekend's effort at a Baron II from Timberbits, wrapped in black acrylic with white lines. While trying to make a corresponding pen in white with black lines, i think my tools were too blunt, and the blank exploded. i have a spare blank i will eventually drill, glue and turn.

    anyway here is the black one with white lines, plus a bonus carbon fibre Sedona for stopping by to take a look

    Hope you enjoy these, and I welcome all feedback.

    Pens are finished in 21 coats of CA, then MicroMesh and Brasso to finish.
    Simon.
