These really look great in person and they have helped me get ready for the corned beef and cabbage.

I'm not sure about the copper Mark...blanks are sweet and the finish looks perfect! I'm Portuguese, Irish...what do I know!!
 
I guess the "gold" kits I used with this photographic setup appear copperish, trust in Irish MAYO that they are really gold as they should be.
 
Beautiful pens. Nice F&F as well.

For St. Paddy's day (my b-day:biggrin:) I plan to do Jameson's and Guinness, my version of Corned Beef and Cabbage (which is actually an American dish. Corned beef and cabbage is the Irish-American variant of the genuinely Irish dish of bacon and cabbage). Probably pair the liquids with a bit of Boxty or Bubble and Squeek.

Might make a pen with a Jameson's label, though.:wink:
 
Of course they are gold do you think any Irish man would be looking for copper at the end of a rainbow... Great pens. They do look copper though.. That photography is spectacular..
 
Whatever the plating color....these are a couple of outstanding turnings!!!!

Fit-n-finish is your usual 'perfect'!!!





Scott (not too many Irish around here) B
 
Great looking pens, stunning effect on the different shades of green in the blanks which go very well with the kits. You sure are ready for St. Patrick's day. Great job!
