Another success!

Well looks like the wife and I have the method down. We got home and this blank was ready to turn round. I need to build more molds now lol. This one is colored with pearl-ex blue-green & silver. I use a cut up sandwich baggie to line the mold. Let me know what you all think. I like this one better than the purple one personally. Going to be cool building up some stock.

"line the mold"???

"line the mold"???

Yes line the wooden mold so that the PR has no chance of becoming part of it. Lined on bottom and side of mold, blank comes right out.

I like 'em both! If it comes out and you can make a pen out of it...it's a good blank!

I see. You should consider picking up a cutting board or some UHMW.
