G'day!
Fellow Aussie Ian de Courcey made these blanks for me, which came up awesome I must say. I did the easy part, fit and finish.
They are Large junior gent (red) and Sn gent (green)
Thanks for looking!

Gorgeous !!!

I have never seen a center band as on that red Large Jr Gent ..... does that have a different kit name ?

And what is the inlay on both ... I think the inlays are different besides the color. ?? . . Are the inlays in strips ?

Thanks Mal
Red one is called large Jr gent, has a nice centre band. From Penkitsmall.
They are both strip inlay, just harder to see the red in the piccies.
 
Looks good! I'm guessing they are thin celluloid strips glued around d the tube like the abalone pen blanks. He did good flying them up. I've made a few and they take time and patience.

I believe they are celluloid strips used in guitar making. In person they ate magical.

If that be the case I now know what they look like because I have a bunch of that stuff and was going to do a pen like that instead of using the abalone shells. This cuts easier and cleaner too and no cracking like with the abalone. Now I will have to try this. Thanks.
