The first orange one here was to be a birthday present for a friend, but I liked it too much, so now its on my desk :cool: it is made from two colors of stabilized burl blank (which was harder than the acrylic I used on the other pens) with a bocote band. The main body is orange and the very top is red/orange. Sanded to 1,000 without any finish. The feel in the hand is like silk and my wife keeps trying to seal it :eek:
The purple pen was made as a gift for a friend.
The blue one is my desk pen.
Soon I think will try making a few to sell, after I work out a few kinks in design and finish. where do you pen turners sell most of your pens? I dont really have the time to do fairs or shows, is there a place on the internet that works well???
