Doug, Yes I used my bandsaw, have a jig similar to Terrys but a bit cruder - new blade fitted and works a treat, finished it off with needle files. :bwink:

Thoughts ?

I think it's fab-u-lous dahling !

That looks absolutely stunning, great choice of materials and what a variety.

Shame this months comp required 2 barrels or I think you'd have walked it with that.

Very nice Rowdy, a lot of work has gone into that and the result is fantastic. Change the colours and the Japanese market is yours. :funny:

That's one stunning pen Rowdy. Extremely well executed. I'd like to be able to copy that. . . . . . . one day!
