Donnie, nice looking pen you have there. I see your trademark beading down near the nib. I like that look.

I like the finish! I know it's hard to get it on the ribbing so hats off. The blank ain't bad either.

You did a good job on it in my opinion. I'm normally not a fan of flares and rings near the nose, but it works with that blank.

I really like it! The bottom section looks like white marble because of the beads. Great work.

That is a good blank. I just wish I could get up the nerve and make my own blanks.I've got everything but the plastic mold.If I could find a deal on that I would be set.In the mean time I will work on some more blanks I got from Brooks803.

Holy crap! I thought I was giving away the blanks from my scrap box 
I must have made a grave mistake and will kindly ask for that specific blank to be returned for proper evaluation :tongue:. That was a blank made during a casting demo I did for my local pen club. I was showing what would happen if you wait too long to pour into the mold after adding the catalyst. You get a blank like that one. I'm amazed at how cool it looks, I never thought it'd be that eye catching. You did a great job turning and finishing!! BTW the colors are metallic pearl red and pearl white. I think I need to go through my scrap box for any other possible diamonds in the rough.
