My 11 year old daughter wanted to start a little business turning pens - how could I refuse . I am new to turning, but have been wood working since I was a teen (picked it up from my Dad). Have learned a lot from reading your articles and comments. We have turned 5 or 6 pens so far. Did our first acrylic - a slim line - the other night. Turns out the orange acrylic is somewhat translucent and you can see the roughed up brass tube and a smudge/dot of CA near the tip of the pen. Any suggestions? Should I just pick a less translucent acrylic for a slim line? I could have painted the tube, but the glue smudge would probably still show . . .
This weekend I think we will be trying a cherry pen & pencil set . . .
