8 From Brooks 4 from Me

[OKLAHOMAN]

It's been a while and I needed to get inventory for a show over the Labor day week-end. Brooks sent these to me a while ago and I preped them earlier this week, finally got to turn them today.. The man can cast!~

and now here are some of the Cactus that I was able to cast in Alumilite, I've always used PR and these Alumilite cactus are my first and not my last. As always all comments welcome, good, bad, or who give a ........

Nice stuff Roy!

Those cactus are great and wow Mcbrooks can cast some blanks! Turned one today myself. If you haven't tried them you ought to...

 

[ToddMR]

Those look good. I think my favorites are the Orange and green ones.

 

[Dalecamino]

Great selection of pens Roy.

 

[boxerman]

Wow very nice pens Roy. Love the blanks.

 

[Jgrden]

These are winners. Good work .

 

[ohiococonut]

Damn it's hard to pick a favorite, they're ALL beautiful!

OK, I'll go for the orange one first then one of the cactus in gold :biggrin:

Holy moly those are beautiful Roy! And thanks for the props btw :biggrin:. I wish there was a lil image for drooling all over your keyboard. I LOVE your choice of paint for the butterscotch. It really made it stand out. I can't pick any one over the other. I will say I had NO flippin clue that the Green/Black/Cream would look like that or else I might have held onto it! I'm happy that you were able to yield some cactus blanks with the alumilite, they look amazing as always. Thanks for sharing them Roy. I make a ton of blanks but I only get to see a small % of them.

WOW Roy! You are right, Brooks can cast, but do not cut yourself short, you CAN turn! You apparently can also cast Cactus blanks. Those are awesome. You best stand behind the table when they come out on display or you may be trampled. As beautiful as the Brooks blanks came out, those cactus pens are the cat's meow.

Fabulous work Roy...and Jonathon. I agree with Jonathon, I think the Green/Black/Cream is just outstanding.

Well done Roy. As always Jonathon's blanks are top notch. But, I'm a sucker for Black and Gold, (Jonathon knows I'm a Steeler fan), well I guess from my lid everyone knows:biggrin:. Do you sell the cactus blanks on your site? Got to make one of those:laugh:. Outstanding group of pens.

Carl

Just checked your web site and see you do sell cactus blanks, any plans to make anymore of the black and gold?

Sweet bunch of pens Roy, Master Caster's blanks are beautiful, and your Cactus in Alumilite are fine looking Jr. Statesmen. Good luck at the show...

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Thank one and all for your comments, it's easy to make an outstanding pen with the proper blanks and Johnathon's make it that much easier.

Steeler Fan, I made a promise to Curtis Seebeck (Mesquiteman) a number of years ago not to sell prickly pear cactus blanks and I will keep that promise. I do sell Cholla Cactus blanks and will be posting some of them i the next week or so and they are in Black and kinda gold. If you want the prickly pear cactus blanks that I showed in this thread contact Curtis, his web-site is listed in vendor links "Turntexwoods" I think.

Well done Roy. As always Jonathon's blanks are top notch. But, I'm a sucker for Black and Gold, (Jonathon knows I'm a Steeler fan), well I guess from my lid everyone knows:biggrin:. Do you sell the cactus blanks on your site? Got to make one of those:laugh:. Outstanding group of pens.
