colour

I really liked the colour combo on this

Last pen made today for a customer. Burl and Acrylic (my last piece in this colour )

I wonder if anyone can help. I had some classic pen kits which had unassembled centre bands that were handy for replacing the black plastic with colour options or turning with a contrasting highlight. But can't remember where I got them ,does anyone have an idea.

Fraid I am after more advice!!! I have am probably going to be using P6 resin for my opaque blanks and have seen a sample pack of powders from MrMica would these be suitable to colour my blanks or would I be better using liquid dyes? Will also be using Aluminite amazing clear can I also colour...

Finaly got round to adding these solid solid single colour blanks to our website, other colours can be cast on request.

This is the latest piece I am working on not sure what to do with it in regards to decorating. Thinking of painting the inside a light colour and a dark colour on the outside what do you think. The slots are still being worked on in these photo's

I live at the border of a nice forest (Fontainebleau), where I sometimes see rotten wood on the ground that is, oddly enough, blue. I tried to get some infos, and I learned this is due to a special mushroom that gives this strange colour to the wood. The blue is very resistant: such a wood has...

After my last burr I did want colour to be added as well as a bit of banter from Ed on another forum I added colour to this one. I just experimented and to be honest I am not sure on it but the wife likes it so I will keep it. Just for interest it is 7" X 2 1/14" sprayed with spirit stain and...

There is a high attrition rate with the driftwood blanks, leading me to use the left-over half of damaged blanks to make these Zetas.... Slightly better colour on this one The grain on this is outstanding "in the flesh"

Hi all More fun with colour! ...and a video too:

Hi made this t light holder and after doing the pyro work, my plan was to use my newly acquired airbrush to colour the leaves. My wife said she would prefer it if I didn't colour it. But I went ahead and did it anyway. Who was right? :thinks:

Hi all! I tried to speed up kitless turning this week. Nothing better than making series I suppose, with some colour changes for variety. But they were not as quickly done as I wished :apologetic:, more work ahead... Thanks for your comments, critics and suggestions.

When SWMBO went through Double Cancer resulting in a huge operation a guy in Texas wrote to us and asked a question. In essence he said he was moved by the seriousness of the situation and he wanted to make a blank for Wilma, what was her favourite colour. Being naturally cautious I approached...

I have seen posts where some of you have talked about painting the brass tubes. I started to make a slimline with a really nice blank, my problem came when i reached the final size of the blank, it had become almost translucent and you could see the brass tube. Well that one is a bust now. So...

Looking at the colour of a name designates what rank a forum member is and in Jim's case it is red. I have noticed that Phil Dart has the same colour so are you our new admin man Phil????:thinks::thinks::thinks:

Wow, this wood is now my favourite. It drilled and turned wonderfully and has such a loverly colour and grain when finished.

I have been clearing out more stuff and came across these blanks I made last year, it's the first one I have turned from them and I am quite pleased with how they have turned out. I back painted this one with black and the tube also black. The next one I will paint using a different colour just...

Think that I like this colour best so far.

Ive made a couple of other (axminster biro slimline) pens but this is my first attempt at one from TM. The wood is Zebrano (I think), finished with 2 coats of sanding sealer, danish oil and CA glue, sanded down to 15000 grit (using the abrasive, colour coded pads from axminster), and finally cut...
