A couple new pens I made. The two in wood are made from Kingwood, the other two are acrylic. I now know I need to paint the tubes before I glue them in, also the tubes seem to do better with epoxy than CA glue. I had two tubes come unglued using CA. I did use and accelerater on them and they both sat for at least 15 minutes before I started messing with them. The black/silver has the tube showing through at the tip. :hypnotized: Oh well, live and learn. (I also found that it is better to sand to the bearings then cut to them. I ruined a really nice acrylic blank today with chip out right next to the bearing. Another lesson for the new guy!)
