Hi all,
Another great quality kit from Beaufort.
Leveche fountain pen in Rose gold. I wrapped it in Alumilite resin. Used Blue dye with a tiny bit of white to get the right shade. Plus this gives the blue a solid look.
Very enjoyable project and a great kit to put together.
Leveche fountain...
Cobalt blue Italian acrylic, navy blue accents and nickel hardware. The clip for this one is fabricated from sheet, wire, and little accent spheres. (Heat the metal up hot enough and it balls all by itself!) This color is simply amazing - my iPhone photos certainly don't do it justice.

I really need a name for this one.
This piece is based on work of Mark Sanger. And not from the recent article in the magazine as I had already started before it came out.

Some new colors I'm working on and I needed some inventory for a craft show I'm doing next month. Thankfully I had a stash of Sirocco kits around :)
The black and blue is fun... Blue glow in the dark powder in that one. I am mildly partial to the metallic blue and purple though.
Well turned this today again not a fantastic blank but I turned it a lot faster than my previous ones.
Didn't crater as much but still sanded wet from 180 through the wet n dry grades and finished with micro mesh and buffed with blue towel.
Bad experience with Blue 1 ply Hand Towel bought from sjone-online Ebay. When used with friction polish etc and also burnishing the blue come out of the paper into the wood. Had to sand down to get rid. The trouble now is that I have over 2000 of these towels and also a brand new dispenser. Any...
