I knew if you put your mind to it you could do some pens. Ha.
Nice assortment!

The majority of them are acrylic blanks. The woods starting at about 1 o’clock are: box elder, Brazilian tulip, spalted oak, big leaf maple, brazilian tulip, koa, walnut, zebrawood, and honey locust. They are all Euro style pens.

Nice job on the pens Joe. How is that acrylic on your chisels?.

The acrylics are fine to turn. Like turning anything, sharp tools are a must. I wet sand them to 600 grit and them polish with a BMW new car wax. The acrylics offer a wide range of colors and patterns.

Yeah, really nice stuff! The acrylics are nice to turn… and non-wood types seem to really like them as well, I’ve found!
That koa is sweet…

nice set, some of those acrylic blanks are striking. Does that stuff smell to turn? I deal with pvc and some other extruded plastic trim at work, and those can really smell pretty bad when cut.
Looks like Tyler’s gonna catch the bug early;)

Thanks everyone. Scott, the acrylics do have their own odder that some find offensive. I don’t mind it though.
