    Casting resin recommendations / suggestions

    Hello all, I'm preparing to pour a sort of hybrid blank, using laser cut segments. Please excuse the photo dump, but just want to get my idea (hairbrained as it may be) across. I've only used Alumilite slow for my castings, with generally okay results. I really don't want any air bubbles in...

    Jr. Statesman in Plumeria and Celtic theme (Laser cut)

    I just finished these two this morning. Wanting to make a pen for my sister in Hawaii. She loves plumeria, so thought I'd give that a try. The pieces are quite small and thin, so I couldn't get rid of the burn edges completely. It kinda works, though. Figured I would try a celtic based design...

    Wood Honeycomb and Alumilite

    This is a wood "skeleton" in a honeycomb pattern from Kenneth Wines that I cast in Alumilite with purple and silver Pearl-Ex. He normally creates a wood inlay blank, but I had an idea that seems to have turned out well. I have several other patterns from him and will be casting those in the near...

    Land of the Rising Sun

    I've been playing with my CNC machine all summer long, but now that it is getting colder out in the shop, decided to play in the "turning studio" aka spare bedroom. I was inspired to do this one as a gift for a man who is in charge of working on our Aircraft Carrier stationed in Yokosuka Japan...

    Laser Engraved True Stone

    I made this for a University of North Carolina at Chapel Hills Alumni. I have done true stone before with great results, but never used the laser engraver on the finished product. I was amazed at how this turned out, of course that comes from humbly perusing the many incredible pen pictures my...

    Burned Wood Smell

    I have recently had my first experience with laser pen engraving. The pen is a PSI Cigar with CA finish. Naturally the laser burns through the CA and into the wood. I did not expect the aroma of burned wood would be so noticeable after the laser engraving process. I would appreciate any...
