I Found A Tiger In My Shop, pics




Hello,


I had some fun tonight turning some pens for my last craft show this Friday.

This pen was the “Wow†of the night for me. It is a platinum Gentlemen’s roller ball kit on a Lucite blank that I bought from a pipe makers supply house…in a word you have to see this one to believe it!

I used my standard finish for man made materials, sanding to a 12000 micromesh finish followed by a Novus 2 Micro polish. This pen has all the tiger colours you can imagine…

I am not sure I want to sell this one, It’s really exciting some times to see what comes of a new material for me…this one is staying in my bag of pens to make again!

Many Thanks To Anthony for giving me the heads up on Pipe Makers Supply...
Thanks for viewing,

Take care,
Jim

Great job Jim....It's fun material to work with isn't it. What I like is that you don't have to wait for the finish to dry for a day or two. Thanks for sharing it with us.
