First, my hate for inlace acrylester has been greatly reduced. A hint here at IAP to turn the ends first has helped along with (perhaps) better turning and sharpening skills. I use HSS and then carbide to turn nice ribbons once the blank is round.
Notice the first photo, it shows a newly buffed blank next to one just after turning and abranet sanding through 400 and 1,000 grit emory paper. I only use the first two buffs on my Beale buff for acrylics. The buffing time was 30-40 seconds for each tube. The other photos show the finished "Diva" pen which should sell quickly.
