Eagle, The blank was from Rockler it's called Pearl Violet #28386 and the pen kit was a Woodcraft kit 7mm CR style with gold clip #124642
Mike, The one tip I did heed when turning Acrylic was using sharp tools and wet sand type sanding kit. I'm used too that type of sanding from my old car restoration days, works great and brought up a fast polish without any burn. Thanks for the great feed back, Jim
