My attempt at one piece pens.

I saw some one piece pens on facebook by Steve Wenlund and decided to try them not even reading the tutorial or knowing about until he mentioned it. The first 2 are slimlines using food coloring and CA. The green one is ash and the other is maple using yellow and red food coloring. The 3rd pen is Spanish olive wood and designer style.

Those are great! I did one of those out of Cedar once with a slimline. There pretty nice.
Good job on the coloring too, it look's awesome.

Very nicely done Staff Sergeant. Really like the color blending.

I really like that 'mini-euro'. How does the cap stay attached to the body. Is it just a slip-on fit?

Having tried it once, I have to say you did an amazing job with the dye!

Thanks again for the comments.
To Steve, the body on the designer is all one piece. Hope this answers your question.
