Here's a quickie I turned this week, based upon a 308 cartridge. Mesquite wood with a BLO / CA finish.

Michael that is very nice! After seeing that and looking at all the used brass I have laying around, I may just have to _pull the trigger_ and start turning pens...

Troy-

That would be a great use of the brass. I will warn you, once I started turning pens it has become very addictive - while my wife and kids wonder how someone can need so many pens (I give most of them away), it is fun trying out new materials and designs. Pen turning is a vortex within the turning vortex!

Another good looking pen. I may have to try one of those.

Looks really good! First time I've seen a bullet pen with Mesquite - works well!
