Hi, I ordered a couple of rattlesnake pen blanks. Is there anything special I should know about turning or working with these blanks?

IIRC, the difference in how the blank is made makes the difference. If it is a simple embedded cast, the resins may not have penetrated the dense scales and it will make your pen rough when finishing. If the skin was properly set in resin then pressurized to the proper amount of psi, then you finish as regular acrylic pen blanks.

I have done a few snake pen and they were the same as normal acrylic pen blanks.
Randy, Search the forums on penturners.org as there are several guys that frequent them who have made snake blanks.
