    And another two

    Hi all, just putting a bit more stock together.... These two Levech are dressed in the stabalised double dyed blanks from Axminster/ PSI, not cheap by any means but always good results. One is green and yellow one is red and yellow?

    I just finished this one, love large pens but dislike kits where the cap can't be placed on the end! Regards Padster

    My First Acrylic

    Here is my first Acrylic. It is a Christmas gift for someone. I got the blank from flexi a while ago, thanks Mark, and I have always been a bit reluctant to turn it. After seeing some absolutely stunning work from you guys I decided to give it a try and WOW am I glad I did. I enjoyed it so...

    No 7 For The Weekend

    A streamline gold Ti and opalac blank. Unfortunately the bloke that made these blanks, neighbours complained and it didn’t matter what he did they still whinged and the poor bugger stopped making them. [emoji2959][emoji2959] I found a few that I haven’t made yet. Sent from my iPhone...

    No 5 For The Weekend.

    A Cigar Hybrid with Paua shell blank. The hardware is black Ti and Ti gold. I buggered up assembling this, nearly finished when I realised I had put the short end parts on the long end [emoji2959][emoji2959] That was very had to knock out [emoji2959][emoji2959] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Almost finished 2

    Hi all, another two for my Christmas customer, these are the TQ blanks I posted the other day.... The light blue is my favorite with diamond dust in the cast. I painted the hole light blue after drilling and used Gorilla PU to fix the tubes.

    Another Shock Absorber

    This is the first pen I have had to make my own tube, I say make but really mean I cut off the tube from a 12" tube. Went back to CA finish with this one, I have managed to make a ripple effect :vangry: I know exactly how it happened. Let me explain. Sanded it down to 6oo grit and no sign of...

    Phoenix in green & black

    I quite like this pen kit it's substantial in weight and I've put a reasonable size on the body as it suits me! Regards Padster

    I like these blanks, I bought a mob of them years ago, not sure what they are made from but they have a funny smell when they are turned. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rrs discovery pen

    I believe this could be a one off of this pen made from RRS DISCOVERY 1901 wood. (If anyone believes differently please let me know.). Like I say the wood used is reclaimed wood from RRS Discovery and made with an Antique Gold Ayres Pen Kit. I am wondering if I should keep it or sell it. As far...

    New Series Screw Cap RB

    Lots of lessons learnt again with this one, the main one being read the instructions before starting. If you don't have the instructions (as was my case) then find them on the interweb thingy and print them off. First time I have done this type of pen and I have actually managed to split it...

    Satin Blue...

    This is not the best finish I've had - it was the first one I've turned since sharpening my gouges and I think I was previously working to accommodate the bluntness of my tools, and now they have the correct angle and sharpness back I caught the blanks a couple of times :rolling: Anyway here it...
