I think this came out pretty cool, and I've never seen one before...

Let me know what you think!

That's pretty cool. When you are done turning it, how do you seal it so it doesn't write on things?

Spray lacquer. No transfers, but it does have a strong crayon like smell!

I Like it! I've made a couple pens with colored pencils but never thought about a ring. Great Idea and nice execution.

Freaking awesome !!

Now that is really unique. I really like seeing things like this that any of us can do, yet I've not seen before. Then I wonder "Why didn't I think of that? ".

Good job! :good:

Looks pretty slick. I've seen a couple of pens turned with the colored pencils but not a ring. Good job.

Thanks guys!

I really like them, but they're not easy to turn. I know there are a lot of casters on IAP. Would epoxy or even a resin something to make it stronger? I suppose I could buy a catusjuice setup...

after i saw this on reddit i wanted to make a necklace pendant the same way. next month my turning club is doing off center pendants for the challenge so i think ill make one like that.

Peter, you come up with some cool stuff, nice work

Checked out your youtube channel, made my wife a foot massager that she loves! Also the shop bloopers was great, glad you're still around. I've made several of those same bloopers and glad no one saw them.

too cool! I'm going to have to put that on my pen turning bucket list of things to create! Neat!!!

 

[PaulDoug]

Very Unique! I think you should stack more pencil and make a matching bracelet!

Very Cool!

That's the coolest thing I've seen in a while! I'll definitely be trying one of these!

Congrats of the exposure from this. I've seen this now in a couple different ways. It's definitely getting some notice on the web!
