I took a shot and ordered an Inlace Acrylester blank called 'Black Blaze'. Gnarley stuff. I didnt know really what to expect. For me it was 3 hours of turning this thing down to the final shape. I had to be gentle because it was like turning plexiglass. Wet sanding it was getting a paste like build up. In the end I managed not to fracture any of the blank. I noticed white lines running thru the black lines. Looks cool in person, camera phone pix dont do it justice. The white specks are a little dust from the table. Regardless, the experience was,,,,educational.
I also got some tru-stone blanks I'll try next week. Never did that either so here we go. :wink:
I would think matching up certain blanks with the appropriate pen kit would be a good thing so I'll go one step at a time.
As a side note, looking at the pens all of your are posting is inspirational to me as we are all into a very cool and, for some, lucritive craft.
Enjoy
