    Black pen blanks...?

    Hi, Guys, Can anyone point me in the right direction to buy a couple of 20mm black acrylic pen blanks? Merv Cadman is hibernating through the winter, and I can't find any listed in other UK suppliers. Timberbits would have been the choice if I had a bigger order and more time, so that's out...

    Black Palm Tree

    I used to know an African guy at a weekend market. From a Village near him in Africa the people made goods that he purchased then resold at his weekend stall. Amongst them were wooden spoons (largish). I used to buy them and turn the handles. They were stringy and tough made up of tubes, I put...

    King Black & Bronze

    This is a new kit from Woodturningz called King. The blank is called Black & Bronze Swirl, and is from PSI. I like the style of this kit. It's only available in the one finish, gunmetal and chrome. The body is very short, which makes it fast and easy to complete.

    100 Dollar Pen

    Okay, it's a pen blank with a fake $100 bill embedded in it, but that makes it a $100 pen, right? The kit is a Monarch in black and chrome from Signature Pen Supply. It's an Elegant Sierra copy, but it's pretty nice.

    Question on this pens finish

    Hi folks, hopefully you will be able to help here, this is my latest pen but the black acrylic at the tip has a sheen to half of it, hard to show in the pictures but the camera flash showed it up best. 1 half is jet black and the other has a crazing to it, is it the "iridescence"...

    Tempest with ebonite blank

    I have just finished turning one of the new tempest click pens. I have heard horror stories about click pena and don't really like the look of the two that tend to be recommended. I am extremely impressed with the quality of this kit, it feels like you would expect a premium pen should. I don't...

    Cigar Hog Wild

    This is a Cigar pen in black chrome from Woodturningz. The blank is an acrylic acetate called Hog Wild. This is for a customer who is a San Francisco Giants fan (local baseball team). Their colors are orange and black. I hope this is orange enough. It's spectacular regardless.

    Triton Angel Wings

    This is a Triton in gold with chrome accents. The blank is a Color Swirl called Angel Wings from Beartooth Woods. A friend of mine likes opal.

    Long Clicker Pure Black

    Another Long Clicker, this one in chrome. The blank is an acrylic acetate called pure black. I have come to really like the chrome and black combination. I think it looks really sharp, and I love the simple elegance of it.
