Glow in the dark blanks

[lrawlins]

I tried some Glow In the Dark blanks using polyester resin and powders I got from a sample kit from Amazon.

I had tried some years ago, but these have multiple colors and to some degree are colored in day light.

Will see what attention they get at a craft fair that is out side at night next weekend.

I tried the glow in the dark powder with Alumilite and they were like trying to turn concrete. A friend of mine turned them down on a metal late then I shaped and finished them on my wood lathe. How did they do using P.R.?

They turn fine, I use carbide as the powders I used in the past did evil things to HSS tools.

Do you mind posting a photo of the pens in the light of day? I'm curious to see how they look when the lights are on (when someone would actually be writing with them)!

(BTW - Glow-in-the-dark ink would turn this into a brand new ball game!)

Here are individual daylight pictures of them.

I thought colors might be different. The "glow" purple is less visible in natural light. Still very cool, and great pens. Good luck at the night show!
