Atlas

[splinter99]

I had a few hours in the shop today and made a few Atlas pens.. This one is Bronz and Violet on a satin pearl kit from Woodcraft

This one is black peacock on a black chrome Atlas

For some reason I cant get all the colors to come through in the pics, they look a lot better in person
Thanks for looking

I'm warming up to the atlas, too. Now THAT'S a nice finish!! I like the dark one.

Nice work on both, I've always liked the Atlas style I have several of my own.

The Atlas is one of my favorite pens. I love the look of dark wood with the black chrome. Good job!

I don`t care for the kit but that second pen does look good........As already said the finishes are great.

Thanks for all the kind words folks..the finish on these acrylic is really easy..I just micro mesh wet through all the grits then buff with Mcguires scrathc and swirl remover..Im always amazed at how they shine after they are buffed. My buffing set up is just a cheap Harbor Freight buffing wheel that is made to go into a drill..I use this in a jacobs chuck on the lathe..$3.99 buffing system (if you have a jacobs chuck for your lathe)..I buy several of the wheels at a time and have seperate ones for different compounds
