Well, 3 and 4 are not included b/c they were made short order as presents and I had them wrapped before I remembered to take a picture. #3 was my favorite too. These are the cheapest slimline kits, with the PSI variety kit blanks. What do you guys think of the last one? I'm not sure the top and bottom match well.

Those are some good looking pens Stephen. I think on the second picture I would have slimmed the top down just a little but that is just me. Looking good.

I agree, I actually just stuck the top on this bottom without that being the original intention. I had some tops and bottoms (mostly bottoms) floating around in my pen tin and I matched these up. I might put a walnut top on the second pen once I make one and toss the one I have now back into the tin.

Stephen - I think they look really good - I think.

Hard to tell due to picture quality. I'll bet you moved in really close with camera to fill the viewfinder and snapped the shot. Suggest you move the camera farther away and snap. Then zoom in on pen with software. :)

Hey Stephen...lookin' good. I used to cut designs in the pen like you've done here, but ended up with gentle suggestions from people. That they are nice to look at but not nice to write with. So, that's when I started going for the straight or mild curve approach. For what it's worth.
