Here's the rest of my turnings from today.
First is a Chrome Euro with a mixup blank. I was casting some blanks for a friend and had a bit leftover from two batches and so I poured them together in the mold. Came out pretty cool. I also reverse painted it black. I'm definitely regretting not keeping the blank that's all green like the end of this pen!
Second is a Blk Ti/Chrome Aero. The blank is my own and it was one that I didn't quite cast like I had planned. This one came out cool, but Allen (Dr.Strangefart) posted a pen made with the same blank and got a different result! I reverse painted this one black to darken it up a bit after seeing how bright Allens turned out.
Next is a Gold Ti Long Click. I typically don't like gold plated kits but I think this one works. This is another of my blanks and I made it much like the one above but I mixed it with copper and I actually got it to mix like I wanted. I'm really happy with how it came out!
Last is a Black Ti Zen with one of Capt G's carbon fiber blanks. I've tried to make these myself and have screwed up every single one so my hat's off to ya Capt! I made this one for the Owner of Illstreet Composites. I buy my resin from them and they've been great to work with. Since they specialize in carbon fiber I thought Chris would enjoy it. He bought a pen off me in Nov as a Christmas gift for his sister so now it's his turn to get one.
Thanks for looking!
