I saw someone's blank for this design (in darker colors) and though it was very cool. So I tried gluing one up and it blew out when I put the pen mill on it. I think I made the mistake of putting clamps on it when using epoxy to glue it all. So try try again and I'm pretty happy with this one. I used the general advice from all you folks esp with respect to NOT sanding to keep the dark aluminum dust out of the maple. Did the best I could with a square radius carbide.
Hopefully I uploaded and photo and posted correctly. First one I felt like showing off since I started turning in Feb.
