Guess what this is made out of.

This is a pen I made for my parents. I can't give anymore info than that or it will give it away. So, let the debate begin.

What the heck is it made of. Besides the slimeline kit.

Coffee grounds and some sort of poly?

How about dyed particle board?

Yep, it's a peice of my parents new Trex Decking. I think they make cool pens. I may just offer a few. I've got three colors to choose from. My Step Dad redid their deck with alternating colors. He works for a lumber yard and they sold him a lot of customer returns really cheap. But there wasn't enough of one color to do their whole deck, so he alternated them. Looks cool. I wanted to get them a pen or two to match their deck.

Interesting idea. What did you use for the finish?

It shines up pretty good with EEE polish, but I also add a couple cotes of Shellawax for more shine.

Cool! I have some Trex laying around after a massive deck project the past couple of years! Hmmmmm . . . !

Not really very soft, a touch softer than acrylic. But it turned like acrylic.
