Knurl Stylus Emerald

[qquake2k]

This is a Knurl GT stylus pen in gunmetal. The blank is called Silk Emerald Green, and is from PSI. This is for my friend who prefers a satin finish on his pens. Like I did before, I polished the blank as usual, then used 4/0 steel wool on it. I rubbed it with the steel wool both while it was turning on the lathe, and lengthwise with the lathe off. Not exactly my cup of tea, but I'm happy with it, and he'll like it.

Great looking pen Jim, i agree shiny finish is nicer on acrylics.

I'm with you on this one. Shiny is better but if that's what the customer wants.........

Nice Jim ...green is my favorite colour for pens ...but that matte finish isn't for me ,but if that's what the customer wants, so be it.

Lovely Irish theme the Emerald green mate beautiful blank, rough, smooth matte, glossy choices we all make from time to time most especially guided by the customer.
