Well here is tonights fun. Quarter sawn Maple.

I won't show you the pencil I tried to turn last night & tonight even cutting the blank to remove the bottom where the comfort rubber goes I split the part I wanted to keep. The good thing is & saved the pen tube both times. It will be ready for another try tomorrow evening.

Mighty fine pen Bart. Fit and finish looks great. Keep'em coming.

[Joe Melton]

Bart, if you have a real nice wood, you may want to discard the rubber part and just make it like a "regular" pen. It's easier, too.
Keep it up!

Very nice Bart, your doing great. Give a try without the rubber piece some time, they make a nice pen that way too.

Yes Terry it is the plexi finish so far its the only finish I use. I used Brasso to buff it out & looked around for something to shine it more nothin to be seen accept Johnson's past wax. Oh what the heck lets give her a try well no build up but it is shinier.
