Jr Gents
G'day everyone. Had a couple of hours free this arvo, and knocked up a couple of Jr Gents. Acrylic is pearl and the other is 'Bees Wing' PNG Rosewood. Finish is MM + the usual 20 coats of CA yudda yudda.
Got some 'Ancient Kauri Pine' & some 'Bethlehem Olive Wood' blanks the other day from USA, so Sunday is 'Turnfest' day, yahoooo.

SDB777, No painted finish needed on the tubes as the pearl acrylic blank isn't very transparent. The subtle colours in the pearl blank are hard to capture on photo's. Really amazing out in the sunlight.

Very good looking pens, the pearl looks great in the pics so must be really speccy in the flesh, really like the rosewood too. Nice work.
