That's one very good looking pen. Good pick on the blank and components.
How well does the MacroMolecular Metal turn? Does it take a big toll on your tools, sharpening more often.

It turns like butter but I do use a carbide tool. Don't think it would be real hard on a conventional tool but it would need to be SHARP.

Nicely done Dick. Good choices to pair, and the finish is beautiful.

Looks great Dick, did you put CA on for finish?
I think in straight lines, but dream in curves
