Corian Fun

[ocsejd]

I know these are simple, but they were really fun to make. I was shocked how nice the darker one really turned out. All comments, good or bad, are welcome!

They look really nice. I like working with Corian. It makes nice pens and people seem to like them a lot.

All three look very nice.

I like corian for slimlines and comfort pens. It was the first non-wood material I turned. I found it very easy to turn. It makes great pens with no finish (other than sanding) required.

Definitely nice. I always try to keep my eyes open for Corian for pens whenever I can.

Very nice, you can glue bigger pieces. Just using denatured alcohol, ca glue, and a couple of spring clamps and make very nice. Tycoon, sedona and even majestic pens

Slimlines are my favorite pen to turn because you can make so many variations of the kit. Corian is a great material to work with. Those are very nice pens. I like the dark one the best.

love turning Corian. makes great slim lines. and your right , gluing with just denatured alcohol cleaning then medium CA leaves an almost invisible seem. only noticeable if you really know where to look. makes for interesting color combos also. great for segmenting lengthwise.

Great looking pens! I love Corian. The yellow is different and an eye-catcher.

Thanks everyone for the great comments, they are very helpful to a rookie!! I have no idea what kind or color the Corian is, I bought it in a variety pack. It really turned like a dream and unlike PR, with the solid coloring there was no need to paint the tubes.
