Great looking pens! I usually fill my small voids with CA and sawdust, Obviously that would bnot work here. Can you tell me what you filled with and if it sanded easily?
Thanks
 
Gary-
I actually pulled the blank out of the trash can when they announced the penturners challenge this week...had a huge blowout while turning, figured I would try something. I had some crushed turquoise from some stoppers I made a while back, lacking a pressure pot setup, I layered it in with CA. worked pretty well, though not thrilled with the overall result.

Nice fill jobs!! Beautiful pens! I bag up a lot of my shavings in different bags for fill. I have yet to use any. I have to give this a try. Yours look awesome!
 
Thanks Jon, I kinda figures thats how you went about it. From here the pens look great, but I can understand you not being thrilled, we are all our worst critics!! [:)]
Next big order I make I think I will get some crushed something and give it a go. I am battling a blank now for three days, sad to say, I am beginning to get used to the battle.
