Well, trying to get the inventory up a bit for the big Christmas rush on pens. (Ha!) Actually my wife thought some of these type of pens might sell with her co-workers. Hopefully I’ll sell them, what I don’t sell may go as some gifts to family and friends.
Here is yesterdays bit of work. I’m getting ready to head down to the shop and get some more done.

Look out Keruk. That pen making is addictive. I am still trying to get it out of my system. LOL. Great pens by the way.

I like PHAT pens, as my fingers don’t hurt as much holding them. They look like a lot of fun to make but I’m stuck on canes right now. I need to go down to work in the basement too!

Looks great, very festive collection there. I haven’t worked with that crushed pearl stuff. Is it as hard as acrylic and as stinky to turn? It has a great look to it, I like it!

Thanks folks.
Shannon, the pearl stuff likes to chip a bit so taking your time is a must. I’ve had a few blow out on me… but they seem to really go well with the Satin pen kits…. My wife said they are meant to me together like a marriage.
Rick, don’t let the acrylics scare you… the only ones I’ve ever had trouble with is the pearl looking ones. Out side of that I love getting that stream flowing off the tool. If you don’t get in time though… the lathe will grab it and wrap it all back up… LOL.
