Faux-Stone Pen Blanks - Gaspeite With White Web
Description
Crafted from a blend of dyed powdered stone and acrylic resins, these faux-stone pen blanks beautifully emulate the look of genuine stone. Exhibiting an elegant opaque apple green hue with coppery highlights and white webbing, these blanks are ideal for experienced turners seeking to infuse their creations with a touch of distinction.
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.
