Lately I've been making a concerted effort to work through my backlog of pen projects. I've collected quite a few pen kits over the course of the hobby, and I realized that I had more than I should. So, in the interest of building stock up for a possible business idea, I'm turning what I have.

Here are four "Polaris" pen kits, which every one seems to have a different name for. The plating is Rhodium I think or Platinum.

I also got my photo tent set up again, and on the advice of a post in this forum tried changing out my background from white. Not sure I like the blue though, need to find something better.

Badger, all of the pens are very nice. I've been working a little bit with bamboo and like how easy it is to turn. I'll have to post the one that I recently made.

Nice work on all 4 and on the pictures. I think the blue background works fairly well as it is pretty neutral with respect to the colors in these pens.
