They look very good and well turned!!
I've just made a cigar pen with the blank second from the right. (Charnwood blank?) Its a nice material to work with.

That’s one I made Mike
Bit of a fail to be honest, the little white dots you can see in the blank is actually a 2nd fill of resin as the first time it went off a lot faster than I thought it would and ended up with hundreds of tiny bubbles 😵‍💫

Nice work Colin,
I wouldn’t worry about the white dots, I think it makes the blank look like a view into space, quite unique! :love_it:
Can I ask which kits were used? As a newbie I often see pens on here and wonder which kit was used to produce them, I’ll eventually get to know them all but seem to spend an age looking through websites trying to match a kit to a pen I’ve seen assembled here.

Thanks Gary, I don’t mind the dots, in fact I think it makes it look better 😁

The 3 on the Left are Etsia kits, pen 4 is an Aquilo all from Beaufort ink 👍
The last two are some Multi Colour Sierras
Of those three the Aquilo is my favourite, just feel nice to write with 🤔😁😁

Nice collection, Colin.
I believe that the 4th pen is a Solano ( just being a bit pedantic )
