Received this feather blank from Jeff (Socdad). An absolute dream to turn. No chipping, just ribbons of joy! I love this blank. Comments welcome.

Wow, beautiful blank, and very nice execution on the pen. It is pure joy when you get ribbons like that, isn't it?

 

[renowb]

Absolutely! Makes it all worth while. I have had some where I was really had my nose to the grindstone, er, my skew turning a blank, tongue out, and all of a sudden, wham, a chunk goes flying! This one turned perfect all the way!

Very nice (to both of you). Ive turned about a hundred feather pens and still get a little cautious with the tools. Im always happy to switch to sand paper to shape it. Then again Ive gotten a few too hot and melted the resin right off. lol Your work paid off. Thats a beauty!

Great choice of kit finish to make the blank look right at home!

Thank you! Basically skew down to size. I then start sanding down to 600 and MM to 12000. I use Mequires polishing compound then Mequires Plastic Polish.
That's my method on acrylics.
