I have seen the kits but not sure that they ooze class or not.. :thinks: maybe not..

Never tried one of that particular kit but have tried other types of sierra / elegant click and never had a problem.

As for background, can't see the cup of tea..:devil:. However I think any background apart from the colours you have chosen would have been better.... sorry, only my opinion..

But the pen looks nicely turned and finished tho. .:thumbs:

Nicely turned and finished but I too won't be buying click mechs until they improve in quality.

Very nice job, mate.
I like the timber and your choice of BLO under the CA finish.
I really dont like the kit, and never turned one myself, but maybe one day i will try some for my personal collection.
Cheers
