New Click Pen and Nuts

NOT great photos but this was for a specific order.
A very good client of my sons specifically asked for "Beech Tree Pods" set in Blue/White and it had to be a click pen.

Not an easy task

The nut pods the client gave us, they came from a tree on his land.
after stabilising, casting and then turning this was the end result...





I was really pleased with the way the pen turned out, going to turn another for the client with the inside of the blank painted a light blue.
This one you can just see the brass tube through the white acrylic

Colin, you did a lot of work to achieve those lovely looking pens.
I hope your son appreciates what you achieved.

I was a little scared to click on this thread when reading the title

That is a superb looking pen. Really like that!!!

Nice Job Colin, lovely looking blanks. To be honest with you, I do not like to see hands holding pens in pictures, but that’s just me.

I understand John
Though as I said in the top post this was just after I made it to show my son.
My wife has this one, (she really liked it) I didn’t think it was spot on (you can see the brass tube).
I will make another this weekend and take some “Proper” photos

This was just to show what the pen looks like

Thanks for the show and tell mate,life is made up of memories.

Peter.

Great looking pen Colin.

Nicely done.
