A series of 20 Polaris pens using Metallic Silver and alternate Ebony from Exotic blanks; very pleased with the quality. I would, however, recommend when you're polishing the Ebony, expect it to be a bear. To get a finish with no swirl marks or fine scratches takes a lot of back and forth with plastic finish and polishing pads. Nothing wrong with the blanks, it's like trying to get a perfect wax job on a black car.

The other one is my first attempt at Carbon Fiber, love the results. Also from Exotic Blanks. Thanks to Jon (Goodturns) for giving me the idea to turn a carbon fiber pen.
