Well, I've been around this forum for a while. Mostly I've just been learning, and slowly gathering the tools I needed to start turning. The other pens I've turned are pretty ordinary as I didn't want to "Learn" on the good stuff.
But this pen was a complete surprise. In fact the blank came from a board that I got for free that was filler on a larger order. There was only a hint of pink on the surface of the board, but it sure showed itself when I cut it into blanks. Even then, I never thought it would end up looking this nice. Now I wish I'd saved it for a higher end pen kit.
The best part is my daughter loves it. It's a lot more glossy than the picture shows. I just can't seem to take great pictures. Comments & suggestions are appreciated.
