Turned from an acrylic blank Jim gave me a while ago,didn't think to paint the tubes so the brass has shown through but it actually looks OK so I left it

turned with Woodies tool,finished with 600 grit Abranet then autosol

Have pictured on a coloured background since there was too much white and glass showing,couldn't really make anything out

They are a fine set, lovely finish, just a shame about the tube, let that be a lesson to you, if in doubt paint it:thumbs:

Agree with all the others Matty, lovely set of pens and the tube should have been sprayed. Having said that, don't take it to heart, you've still done a magnificent job.

Very nice set of pens Matty, if it's any consolation, I did the same with a pen (Euro) a few years ago, but when the Wife took this pen and a few others to her work she never came back with it ... :thumbs:
