Made it out of hose that is. A short piece of my black air hose. Need I say that it doesn't turn well. Worse then any punky wood I have ever turned. All the pens including the hose(ed) one are finished with CA.

This one is a gunmetal slimline.

I like the fountain pen like grip on these slimlines.

You've been busy JD! Rubber must have stunk up the place a bit. All in all, a nice set of pens!

Very nice set of pens James and some unique materials you have been using.

JD ... you are the king of alternative materials. I have a hard enough time keeping up with turning all the WOOD products I have available, then you come along and turn stuff I'd never think of.

This probably should have been an edit but... I indicated in the OP that "all" the pens were finished with CA. That is an error, only the non-Corian pens got the CA. The Corian pens were finished with Hut plastic polish and one was done with Triple E. I did the one in Triple E to see if there would be any difference. I have since forgotten which one it was and can't tell by looking at them so I guess it doesn't matter which I use on plastics.
