Well I got a mini lathe for my birthday and have since becom extrmemly addicted to this. I am having a ball turning pens and other small things. These are 2 of my favorites made of Black Palm. The first one is a Black Chrome Patriot Pen and the second is the first Black Palm I ever turned Gunmetal Slimline Pen.
