Here is my pen! I've finally claimed a pen and this is it. (Unless I get offered some good $$$ for it. But I'm not going to openly put it out for sale.

This Statesman Rhodium w/Bl ti. The blank is Spalted Curly Mango from Arizona Silhouette.

Whats the finish? CA/BLO? or your plexi/acetone finish?

That is an awsome pen. I've only made one and it wrote very smoothly and was very nice in the hand before I handed it off. Can't really afford one for myself. Very cool wood as well, and did I miss the thread where you showed off your new photo setup? The pictures look really great.

Russ,

This is a CA finish. I can't always get the Plexi finish just right and with the money already into this, I didn't want to chance it.
