Here's my first real try at segmenting. I know it's not an elaborate design but I'm just happy I was able to cut everything flush. I used an actual acrylic blank for the body, I haven't turned real acrylic since last year (I'd forgotten how bad that stuff stinks! I'll take my PR anyday over that stuff). I used some leftover Red Jasper TruStone for the segments. I made a recess in the centerband so the body would be pushed into it for a cleaner look. The finish is MM to 12000 and PlastX polish. It was fun to make and has really gotten some ideas flowing through my head (which I promptly wrote down so I wouldn't forget) so keep an eye out for a bit more creative pen in the near future. Thanks for looking and especially for any comments!
