Paua Shell Pen Blank - White - Sierra Pen Kits
This pen blank is made with a beautifully dyed Paua Abalone shell. Paua Abalone shell is harvested and cleaned and the most beautiful part of the shell is used in jewelry and other applications that call for a stunning iridescent material. The Paua is cut into thin strips, then, ever so delicately, each strip is meticulously hand-applied onto the pen tube. It is then cast in clear polyester resin to enhance and protect its beauty.
This pen blank comes tubed to fit the Sierra twist, Virage Twist, Thank you, Diamond Knurl, Ellipse, Awareness, Gatsby Twist, etc. group of pen kits. As with all polyester resins, sharp tools are a must. Using a pen mill is NOT recommended. The blanks make beautiful pens and are for the more advanced turner. Turning experience is suggested. The blanks are returnable if they have not been machined in any way (including facing). Blanks will not be replaced or refunded due to blowouts.
Each of the paua shell pen blanks is artfully and meticulously made by hand by Ron in his studio.
Hi Jim, the blank is "pre-tubed". Meaning that it already has the pen kit's tube inside. You do not need to drill it. Because the pen kit tube is already inside the blank, you will need a Sierra twist style of pen kit for it.
