My Classic American in Pink Ivory, Plastic and I'm not sure what that center section might be. I did have a little trouble with the finish but when I got home from the hospital I sanded away the hair and skin, gave it a good coat of ArmorAll and Ta-Da, good as new!

Yes I know there is a nail in it, well actually half a nail, the other half is in my forehead. I bought a new nail gun just for penmaking.
To the other replyer, ugly is in the eye of the beholder.

The skin and hair came from when I accidentally super glued it in my arm pit. My wife nailed it to my forehead because I spilled hydrochloric acid down my front and I was wearing her apron at the time. I'm going to buy her a new apron as soon as the bandages come off.

OUCH!!!! That is a visual that I just didn't need.

Angela, I need your help now! Thanks for driving me to therapy, Jamie!

But I guess there are worse things than having to seek Angela.[;)]

Thanks Billy, how sweet. It looks like maybe I could start a whole group therapy group from this. [:D]

Someone call my name...

Dude...At least it was your armpit... Cause one time, I was wearing my turning frock (Of Course), while applying a ca finish... The phone rang. It was my friend Eagle. He needed some help learning how to do some bent laminations, cause you all know how he needs a little help in that area. I had just taken the CA soaked blanks and mandrel off of the lathe to put on my Ron Popeil Showtime Rotisserie to dry. Then for no reason, Eagle asks me how many licks it takes to get the the center of a Tootsie Pop. I thought it was 11 but couldn't recall for sure. Needless to say, I was gonna need my fingers to count. Where does one put something when on the phone and needing their fingers free to count? It was only between my knees for like 11 seconds. All I have to say is that I shoulda used thick CA... That would have allowed more dry time. I'm not gonna to that again. Wenge has a lot of splinters too...[:(] You try riding a bicycle with your knees glued together.

How'd I miss all this fun?! [:0][:0][:0]

Angela is going to be buying all the best turning equipment next month at this rate.

I thought RonMc's pen is unique...I think you just topped it [;)][:D]

James,
I would love so see some more pictures of this. I have looked intently at this picture and I'll be darned if I can't figure out what it is.[:eek:)]
I read about skin and hair and who knows what else but am assuming that all of that is a joke.
You have tried something that I tried a few months ago yet you added the curve in the lower barrel when I added it at the top.
I would really like to see additional pictures![:D]

Can we please remove this picture? I'm getting nightmares just thinking about it. Once this gets out on the street, all my customers will want me to produce one just for them. I can't do it.
