Red&Green

[MikeL]

I've been a little slow on pen making lately but did some home casting of some acorn tops using alumilite. The acorns came from beside a running track. As I finished my short run and got bored waiting for the real runner (my wife) to finish, I noticed acorn tops and got busy picking them up. A nouveau sceptre and a full size statesman. Thanks for looking.

Two stunning pen, top notch work to be sure.

Both are great, but the green is most impressive to me.

Thanks for the comments. The green pen is a second attempt since I had two blow outs (upper and lower barrels). The material on the full sized is so thin once turned down to size. I didn't use a single turning tool unless you call a disk sander a turning tool. Once the corners were truned off, a power sander was used the rest of the way until close to size. No blow outs that way.
