That's gotta be a tough casting. How do you like the mechanism on these clicky's Les? Some of the older ones seem sloppy

Great Job Les. I have a CF completed but I like the look of that SS cable.

Theses are one of my Favorite pens to make. They are popular with the clients. Everybody likes clicks

Jim. if you stretch the spring in the pen it will "stiffen/Tighten" up the click some.

Great looking click pen. I've not made a braided one before but they look like fun to make. Good job.

Les,
Beaut pen SS comes up a treat. Like the elusive pimpernel I seek you here and there everywhere your work is a standout success for mine.

I have never seen a more consistant woodworker or more complete than you, may you prosper.

Kind regards Peter.
