Nothing particularly special but I thought I’d post this because I really like the colours of this material. It’s an acrylic and I matched it with a plain blue acrylic and sterling silver accent rings. It has 13mm threads and takes a Jowo nib. Cheers Ash

I have mentioned a few times about the challenge of using slim stock, namely vintage cellulose tubes that are very narrow and pre-drilled. In order to use this material for the barrel, section and the cap I went down the route of making a pen where the cap screws onto the end of the section...

Hi all, I have been busy turning some acrylic blanks for a special friend, but business come first so a little break from the acrylic.... Oh to more acrylic ( surprisingly different to turn and finish)..... I think this is a football club?? :pray::pray: Now to get back to my other...

Ebony pen with a bit of orange pearl and ivory (how could I not?) coloured acrylic . It has a cellulose acetate section and cap threads, which are 13mm Ø. I've mentioned before that I had developed a "splat" logo during lockdown, and this pen has a sterling silver logo coin in the cap end plus...

Mistral ballpoint in jet black acrylic, man that stuff is hard to work. So I had a few issues, firstly the acrylic bubbled and tore away at the thinnest part on the nib end, I had to take the nib section barrel to the disc sander and take about 3/8" off, this then meant I had to take the same...

My first proper go at acrylic, quite nerve wracking to begin with but when I got to the last 2 or 3 micro meshes it just popped and was quite spectacular to be fair! :-)

Hi all, I'm about to turn my first acrylic, I've painted the inside of the drilled holes as Phil advised. I have bought micro mesh and will use them up to their highest grit as the finish. Before I start, is there anything else I should consider? I want to turn it slim, but wonder if this...

Hi everyone, I haven’t been here for a couple of years as I had to stop making pens. However, Over the past couple of weeks I’ve started again, so I thought I’d show you this one made from one of the acrylic blanks from Phil’s shop. It’s an ergonomic oblique calligraphy penholder, for those...

What is the best glue for gluing acrylic? I have been asked to make some Christmas baubles with stripes in acrylic so I need something strong and invisible !

I was asked to make a pen for someone who has difficulty holding a Round bodied pe. No suitable Acrylic blanks were available so made my own Octagonal Celluloid acrylic from Conway Stewart.

Here is one of my efforts , black finished nib made from red pattern acrylic .. sorry posted in the wrong thread ..

Hi all Does anybody have any experience or advice of hand painting pens? Just to be clear I’m talking about painting a design on the outside of a finished (kit-less) pen and then adding some sort of clear protective coating. I’ve not tried this at all yet and will obviously learn from my own...
