Great looking pens, I really like the copper. Which kit were these made from?

now there is a good reason to order a few pieces of acrylic. Outstanding looking instruments all, but am partial to the blue specimen. Very, very nice

Great looking pens. I'm putting a shopping list together to start doing pens - and now I'm going to need to add some acrylic blanks to that list... I'm with Doug, I love that copper one.

Beautiful work Jeffrey! I've never had the urge to turn pens but after seeing your work - I may just have to give it some more thought! Very nice!

Thanks all.
This acrylic is great to work with.
Plus WC has them on sale thru Dec31 at $2.49 a blank
make sure to have their sanding MM kit or some way to sand them.
Overall with the colors could do them for the rest of next year and never do the same color twice.
Sweet.
Enjoy.
Now waiting on the Corian for the Freedom pen thing.
so should be a great New Year.
The copper kit came from here.

Jeffrey, beautiful pens and your pictures show that immensely! I just finished three acrylics for my wife and two daughters, but my pictures couldn't/wouldn't show the depth of the color like yours did. Can you provide me some information like camera type, resolution or what you do to provide such an amazing picture to capture the effect of the pen?
