This is my second pen, I hope someone likes it.
It's a Jr. Gent 1 with acrylic and aluminum.

I don't care for the pictures. I will try to get better ones to show the colors better.

Kelly, that is amazing!
You modified so many parts of that boring hardware kit that it is hard to tell it is a JG1 at all.
Well done.
BTW, I'd like to know more about that old craftsman lathe you have, just in case I see one on CL sometime.

I think if you choose a darker background for your next photo, we will be able to see the details of the pen more easily.

Dale, all I know about the lathe is it's a Craftsman. Sorry I can't give you more information.

OOPS, I thought I read or heard that a gray background was best but, I will try a dark background and see if it helps. The pictures don't look nearly as good as the pen. The color is brighter on the pen.

I tried to take some new pictures. I just can't get it to show the color. The other pictures look better but, here goes.

You just need to color correct the image. That's actually one of the good things about using a white background as it makes color correction pretty simple.
