Thanks Karl ! If I had your phone number , you would have gotten a call ! I didn't know how to finish that Earthcast . SO , there is no CA on it . I also painted the blank white ![:eek:)] What was I thinking ?? I wasn't ! SORRY Karl . I'll just have to buy another blank . I really love the pattern . [8D]
 
I like the white on the inside of the blank! I usually use a dark blue paint on mine, but the white looks cool, too! I usually turn the Hybrid stuff a little smaller than the bushings and then just put a thick coat of CA on. That way you can buff it without going through. It looks great, though! :D

Thanks again friend ! I'll do that on the next one ! I'll be in touch ! [8D]
 
Thanks Woody & Steve ! I can take credit for turning the pens , but Karls awesome blanks are the good parts . They are worth every dime as far as I'm concerned . Thanks for your compliments ! [8D]
 
Both of these look great, and your photos are really coming along too. The first is just a wee bit out of focus in the extremities, which would go away if it was more parallel to the back of the camera. Color and exposure are good.

Gotta love Karl's blanks.
