Well, I got a couple orders done. I've got two Jr. Gent II in gold with ambrosia maple for some friends who do new church work in New Jersey. The other 7 pens are all Jr. Gents made with fiddle back maple with dyed to Teal color. I had one blow out on me... so I upgraded the pen to a Teal Box Elder.

Nine Jr. Gents is two day.... whewww... I'm tired. Thanks to Mike Helvey who did the engraving for me.

Jon-

I really like the finish on your wooden pens. Are you buffing these out to make them shine so much?

Mike charges $4 a line if I remember correctly.

I use a CA finish. 1500-12,000 Micro Mesh. Then Whit Diamond buff followed by a Renaissance Wax/buff.
