How to Turn a Modified Slimline Pen
You can view more of my penturning series here: • Pen Turning . My niece called and asked me to make her a replacement pen. Her favorite color is orange so I grabbed the first orange blank I could find. Turned out to be Inlace Acrylester... I HATE Inlace Acrylester... but oh well. It gave me a few fits, but I got it done. The important thing is that this video can serve as a how to for turning your own modified slimline. And the blank material shouldn't matter. I finished it with ... well, nothing! Resins don't need a finish and I prove it in this tutorial. Enjoy. If you have questions, feel free to contact me. Thanks for watching. Please Like, Subscribe and Share.

Nice job, Billy. When you talked about your grain matching marks, I thought to myself, "self, aha, I'll tell him about how I mark the inside of the tube so I can tell which end is which after the marks are turned away". Then you stole my thunder and showed that you do that also. I guess you probably wouldn't believe me if I said I actually sign my signature on the inside of the tube on the matching end, would you? Nah, I didn't think so. LOL

LOL, thanks, Ron! Sign the inside? Holy cow, I can't write that small! If I had a laser engraver, I would engrave my initials where I'd put the clip.
Neat pen

nice work Billy. There is just something special about pens, don't know what it is, but even a simple one is always satisfying to make

Thank you very much, Ruben! Yes, they can be quite satisfying. But monotonous if you do them all the time. At least for me. Maybe because I've turned so many over the years.
This is beautiful! Thanks for sharing. God bless

Great video Billy. I have never seen a modified Slimline done that way before. I stopped using Polyester Resin years ago because of the bad chipping no matter how gently I turned it. Great video my friend and one I'm keeping for when I give this a go. Take care Billy. Cheers, Huw PS What were the outside diameters of the washers you used please?
@TheMessyStudio
Жыл бұрын
PR can be tricky for sure, Huw. This was even more so... probably because of how old it was. The washers are 12 & 14 mm in diameter.

@@TheMessyStudio Thanks Billy. I tired one a while ago that was probably 4 years old. It was un-turnable.
Love this. Any idea what size washers you used. Thanks.

Nice pen Billy. I hope you show us the color fill of the engraving. I engrave my own pens, but have yet to engrave a resin pen.

Always cannot understand when people have a lathe and say they are wood turning when in fact they are “scraping”.😩

If you've watched many of my turning videos, you've seen me "cut". This is resin. Resin likes scrapers. Sometimes it doesn't mind the skew. Just depends on the resin. Do you have a lathe? I'd be happy to watch some of your "turning"!
