Has anyone ever embedded mosaic pins into your pen blanks? I have the opportunity to have a display case set up at a couple of our local pet supply/training stores and I would like to work some pet related items into my turned pens. I am not a huge fan of "themed" pen kits but I just ordered a few of the PSI Cat and Dog pen kits. I was thinking that I could drill through my exotic wood blanks and insert a mosaic pin that would look pretty nice.
Looking to see if anyone had done this and how hard the pin would be to turn. I have turned brass and aluminum on my wood lathe before so don't think hardness would be an issue. Or maybe inlay and sand to final thickness?
