This was my first attempt at an Acrylic. There was a major goof in the fact that I stretched the tube while sanding when I tried to sand on centers. Thanks to some quick thinking by mom and dad the pen works. CA has a ton of uses when it comes to pens. The kit is just a plain pearl cigar if the pictures don't show to well.

Is that the Jade Acrylic from woodturningz? It looks like it. I think it looks nice. Good color combination between the kit and the blank too. Looks like to me your spot on with the size you turned to vs the kit parts. Well done. Be careful not to put too much pressure when doing TBC. Shouldn't need to press too hard when sanding. Good to hear you were able to make it work out. Nice pen!

It was just called Light Green. Didn't look to light to me but I got it at a store here in Indiana. Rockler I believe. The size is pretty darn close except one fitting and it is so obsolete you can't tell with the naked eye but I'm critical of sizes (get that from mom)
