This is the slab from last week, but after cutting it i was a little disappointed with the outcome. The white seems to have been heavier that the red and yellow, even thou the red had almost gone off?

Last weeks mix seen here in its slab form ...

I did stir, but maybe a little more aggressive next time. I will turn the blanks but i doubt very much they will look good on a pen ... :down:
