There we go my first Corian slimline. After a lot of problems with the drilling I got there with a little push from Eamonn.
Through the grits as normal and finished of with a couple of shots of T-cut. Thing I don't like is the gold finish I had intended to use gun metal but the two kits I have are missing the centre pieces. :banana::banana::banana:

A nice pen Peter. I know some people are quite critical of Corian for pens but I find they are quite popular with users.

Thanks guys it really spurs a newby on when you give these positive responses. I've just made its partner a pencil, it took three mechinisms before it would work. The first refused to go in and had to demolish it to get it back out, second fell to bits, finally got it with the third.
