I always enjoy a chance to do some inlay on a pen so I tried a pattern out this past weekend and then turned it tonight. It's not quite what I had in mind but it was fun trying. We had a penturning class at Craft Supplies tonight so I turned these two Jr. Gent 2 pens. The first is Figured Jarrah (Australia) with Holly inlay, dyed black and cut back wtih 600 grit. The glue job isn't great but it was just for fun. Kit is TN. Second pen is Holly with exposed brass tube on either end. I wondered how this would look with the 10k kit so here it is. Kind of interesting, I thought. Neither of these are what I would call a work of art, but both were fun to make. Finished with... you guessed it - Master's Magic Spray Lacquer. Comments/Critiques welcome.
