Faux-Stone Pen Blanks - Dragon Skin
Description
Constructed with a combination of dyed powdered stone and acrylic resins, these faux-stone pen blanks resemble the appearance of real stone. The blank features a vibrant opaque turquoise, tan & green colors with black webbing - making it suitable for advanced turners.
Turning Tip: Faux stone is dense, so the tool needs to be sharp. It can be turned with a roughing gouge, skew, or carbide tools (please watch our video showing these tools in use). Because it is stone, it is porous, so you may want to complete it with a thin CA finish (I recommend 2-3 coats of thin and one or two coats of medium.) Once these have cured, sand with 600 grit and polish---you can achieve a high shine--Ed
Pen blanks are approx 3/4" sq x 5" long. The price is per each; the photo shows a representative sampling of the colors and swirling.
