I asked him to get me some of the scraps. He was able to get me lots. So I made him and his wife pen and then decided to try something a little different. Walla, Corian vase and a rose from my garden..

Nice job Paul. The pens look great and the vase is lovely. I'm curious how you turned the rose. (I know you said it's from your garden)
That Corian turns nicely but the "fluff" just goes everywhere and sticks to everything doesn't it.
Happy and Safe Turning, Don

Nice work! Good 'textured' looking pens! The material gives the vase a 'stone' look. Pretty cool!

I laid sandpaper on my tablesaw top and flat sanded each piece on it. I glue one piece at a time with thick CA glue. It was 6 pieces. Didn't know if it would hold but it did.

The vase looks great. I'm going to have to get me some more cut-offs to try that!
