A couple of Tru-Stones Siennas

[Glen Schumann]

Completed a couple of Siennas dressed in Tru-Stone today. Sure do need sharp tools with these. Sanded using Abranet to 600 grit and then wet sanded with MM pads through 12000 followed by polishing three times with One Step plastic polish. Comments and critique welcome. thanks for looking.

I've often thought about using Tru-Stone on these type of kits....but always feel a little guilty for not using the entire blank. Guess I could make two(2) pen kits with one(1) blank, but that is another thought entirely!


Really liking the black on black look! Very elegant!!!!

Both really nice, coincidentally I did a sierra elegant yesterday using the same blank (black with gold) as yours, if you are planning to do more tru-stone, invest $70 in the woodchuck pen pro that comes with a carbide cutter, you'll turn faster and smoother with no need to re-sharpening your tool, the cutter comes with 4 sides and I'm still using the first one and I did at least 20 high end pens with tru-stone and I'm sure I can do a lot of more with the same side
