Clayton717 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Here are some pens I turned. I had to try out the new toy. They are marked what kind of wood was used. There are six pens, a pencil, and a pill box. They are all slimlines except the first one, its a 30 cal bullet kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Clayton, they look great! You'll never be able to stop now. I love purpleheart. I have one that was sort of a bland color, but it darkens with age. I read somewhere that if you put purpleheart in a very warm area, like on a radiator or on oven on low, it will speed the darkening process and turn very dark purple, almost black. Have fun!
