Would You

[Dalboy]

Here is a quick but fun question. First of all I will not say what material it is, but I have turned it to 6" X 1".

Now would you try and make a pen from it. The next part of the question I will ask after you have worked out what it is(and yes I know):wink:

 

[paulm]

its either cork or aluminium in my opinion.

Kitchen worktop chipboard is my guess init?
Or sweepings from the floor?

 

[bellringer]

i think cork

 

[Buckeye]

Same as Brian, I wouldn't make it into a pen if it is chipboard, but I have seen others done and they look okay.

Looks like cork floor tiles to me.

And to answer the question - No probably not.

 

[bassethound]

sterling board Stuff?

 

[Terry]

As Brian says chipboard !!!:idontknow::idontknow::idontknow:

 

[Kardav]

Cork would be my guess and yes, I'd try it, if it was cork that is.

 

[chas_41_uk]

I'd guess cork as well. I'd give it a go.

 

[Grump]

I think all our guesses are way off, it has to be something really outlandish all our suggestions have been done before, usually when we were starting and looking for something original but never found it.
It has to be something like stabilized horse dung or tobacco or tea sweepings from the factory floor init?

My first thoughts were chip board or cork. Then I read everyones posts and saw they thought the same.
You've turned it so far so yes try for a pen.
Is it left overs from turning set with super glue?

Last nights curry set in CA??

 

[Neil]

Looks as though it might be one of those fire briquette things, compressed crap, a bit like chipboard I suppose?
