I am posting this before I look at other people's pens this morning before I lost my nerve, because of how good your pens look!

Looks great. As everybody else says "should of used a different background". Maybe use the back of the calculator to hold the pen. Again pen looks good.

Guy came up and asked which pen will I sell him. I had 4 I made on my desk, the first one I made told him is not for sale (it's messed up and cracked), he grabbed the Corain pen.

Great looking pen. No reason to be timid about showing it. Looks to me like you did a great job turning it. It's a nice color of Corian and the kit you used goes with it very well. Keep at it and keep posting pictures.

Nice pen, I think the kit and blank match well together. I might add that it looks like your lens has a smear on it. If you clean it, the photos will be crisper.

Congrats,

Nice job for a first time with Corian, it can be a monster when you first start, but in time you learn how to handle it. It finishes very well. When you get more comfortable with it
you can do a lot with Corian, mix it with wood, metal, or even different colors of Corian.
Here is an exaple with a wood mix (Just using up some scraps).
Good luck on your pen making.
