I'm still pretty new to this pen turning thing, but I made these for my wedding which is this afternoon. The dark ones are Jr. Gent II FP's for my groomsmen with Diggin For Gold on the outside from Exotic Blanks, and the white one is a Venus inside a Stardust blank also from Exotic for the sign-in book. These are also my first try turning between centers. Thank you, JohnnyCNC for your advice and your bushings. It's significantly improved the quality of my work. Sorry about the quality of the photos, it turns out getting married is time and stress intensive.
I'm really pleased with how these turned out. The pictures don't do the blanks justice. There is a lot of depth to the dark ones, and in good light, they explode with gold and silver, not veins, but clouds. Now I need to figure out how to eliminate those lines from the drill bit...
Thanks for looking. Gotta get to the church.
