On Request

[Gadget-UK]

Just cut this one up

Pine Cone with a Green and Red Acrylic.
A request for a pair of pens for Christmas ?



Also a request for some Glow in the dark pens ?
No idea why ???



And finally a pair of Blue and Glow in the dark for Light Pulls



It wasn’t until they came out of the pot that I realised the Blue and the Glow Acrylic has seperated?
Wasn’t expecting that ???

Picture blanks in the pot now ???

They look great. Do you sell any blanks Colin?

 

[Gadget-UK]

Not yet Steve but always open to offers

Picture blanks turned out well.
Had a good day today even though I have not turned anything

They look great mate. PM me with the price of the pine cone blanks mate, would love a go at them.

Cheers.

Quite a range Colin I am drawn to the Pine Cone Blanks but await the finished results.

They look great Colin, looking forwards to seeing them turned.

Yes the picture blanks turned out fine Colin, we’d love to see the finished pens.

Well, I did turn one of the pine cone blanks I made and to be honest VERY disappointing
Due to the size of the cones and the fact they were open, once turned they wasnt very much left of the actual Pine Cone.

I will have another go at another one with a different kit sometime this week and see how that goes but at the moment I dont hold out much hope

Picture tubes, yes, they looked good in the picture above BUT something went wrong along the way and when I started turning they literally disintegrated.
With the exception of ONE blank I made with the last of my old acrylic......
They were made with a brand new batch of acrylic (first use) and it is not right

I have made a couple of Plain (Clear) blanks this morning and have them in the pot now, I want to see if these are ok, if not then it has to be something to do with this particular batch of Acrylic... I will let you know..

Did turn a few today though and they will be in the Acrylic area soon

Steven, You have a PM

What resin are you using ?
Acrylic is quite a broad term

One I have used for a while now and never had an issue.
Just opened a new pair of bottles to do the pen blanks and they have gone very brittle, Hard but you can snap them with your hands
Haven’t done anything different, I honestly think its just an “Off Bottle”

An "off bottle" is the reason I have moved away from alumilite as I have had a few that I have had various issues with in last few orders. Makes it pretty expensive when you can't use the last kilo or so
