Two pens made of Truestone on a baron pen kit.

Both these blanks are the toughest i have ever turned, the Black and Red Jasper one being the toughest of all. I was doing two runs with the roughing gouge before returning the the sharpener, when i got down to the skew it was four runs of the blank. The blanks get real hot when polishing which i picked up early enough before i did any damage. I took Gary's advice and used wet micro mesh before finishing off with Hut's plastic polish. :thumbs:
