Walnut and Gold Cross

[Gary Max]

Just had to give this inlay stuff a try.
Walnut and gold glitter---clip is on the other side of the pen.
It's all done by hand --no fancy drill holder/guide thing.
Slimline kit---finish coat of Ren wax

Man, everyone is doin really good on the inlays.

Wow, that came out pretty cool!

 

[Gary Max]

I bought the stuff at Wallyworld.
The big trick is reading the instructions that YO-Yo wrote.
I just looked at the pics and tried this---did not work right.
Funny how that happens[]

Nice looking pen Gary.

Very cool pen

Good looking pen. Does the glitter feel rough or did you use CA to make it smooth.

 

[Fleabit]

Nice job on the free hand inlay.

 

[Gary Max]

Bill it feels smooth.
Ed does a real good job with instructions.
I cut the biggest part of the slot out with a Dermal and squared the corners with a craft knife.

Very nice Gary!!!

 

[WoodChucker]

Nice job Gary!

 

[Gary Max]

I started with the very Fine glitter--which you would need for the small stuff---like the bands or dots on the maple pens. Things as big as this cross---found in the wifes craft supplies. Just plain old regular glitter.
I figure if these sell I will move up to the crushed stone.
Or maybe something real fancy
