Stunning as always my friend....now as your an expert you'll have to try segmenting acrylic

Very nice Alan. I just would not know how to start to make the pen

Alan, the next time I make one I will take some progress photographs. Here's a photo of the blank.

Absolutely gobsmacked. As Ala16. I don't have the equipment nor experience. But even if I was more proficient in my woodturning. I still wouldn't have a baldies where to start....
( IN case you think I have misspelt something
Baldies is a local remark meaning "I don't have a clue "

I’ll never cease to be impressed by these, it’s the absolute insane accuracy that must be required in achieving perfect surfaces, before glue up and then the same level of perfection gluing and finally the turning….

I like both but the EYE OF SAURON type pen is mesmerising !

That surely not two shots of the same pen is it ?

Thanks Paddy.
I find that the most difficult part is the glueing. I would prefer to use carpenter's glue but there's no way to clamp the different shapes. so it's CA .......having to be careful that my fingers don't become a part of the blank.
