    Green Pens

    I had a request for an acrylic green pen. Today I turned three so she can take her pick.
    The kits and blanks are from Woodcraft.

    Great looking pens. Hard to choose just 1.

      Very nice work. I like the Key Lime the best. Just curious - what do you do with the pens you turn?

        I give a lot away but I am now completing orders from residents here at the apts for a total of 34 assorted pens/magnifying glasses/letter openers and bottle stoppers. I hit a gold mine.

          Those are beautiful Dick. I vote for the Key Lime myself. I haven't tried turning an Atlas yet. From a turning perspective, how do they differ from other pens?

            I like the Atlas for a couple reasons, both being that they are one piece. If you have a nice grain pattern it isn't broken by a band in the middle and they are easy to turn. Try one!

              You're a "pen turning machine" Dick. They look super. I don't think I turn them anymore, I'll just order the finished product from a little shop in Seattle. Pat
