I got some pens finished today.
A Spectraply Slim-line(Tung oil finish), a Hemp European(CA finish) and a Black Palm Stubby Stylus(CA finish).

Nice!

Nice job, where did you get the blank for the middle one. What wood is it?

Like JPG said, it's hemp. I was able to get several dried stalks a few years ago.

Finished my son's birthday pen. He'll get it on Wednesday. He picked out the acrylic.
Gold Slim-line with cross clip.

Nice!

I have a chuck of plastic I picked up at woodcraft a while back in the big sale barrel, not sure if they were seconds or just a bunch they wanted to part with or perhaps to short for pens???? Now I just have to find a reason to turn it into something shorter then a pen..... and well find it again.

Thanks! Here are some stylus' I made from cutoffs and extra parts.



Some ideas hopefully.

Nice, i especially like the black palm, a material that drives me crazy. I have vowed to never turn it again!
