    Some New Ones

    All pens were sanded through 600, the wood ones received 8 coats of CA/BLO, and all were finished off on the Beale wheels.

    As always, beautiful work. I really like the rosewood Jr. pen. That particular one has got "life" captured in its grain. A very rich looking pen!

            All beauties, Dick. Is the "button" on the cap a separate piece, and if so, how do you produce it?

              My wish to turn pens stems from looking at finished work from others in this forum, particularly yours, Dick. As always, looks so good I want to reach in and feel these!

              One of these days, I want to do something close enough !
