My experience with Thuya is mixed. Turns beautifully but the smell is not to my liking. Another top notch pen.
It's all been said.
Tad fat in the body for my taste, but you can't fault the quality of the turning and the finish.

That's one lovely pen Johnny.

Great looking piece of timber.
IMHO, the larger component sets look and handle better turned B2B.

A bit bulbous for my liking Johnny but nicely turned and finished, well done.

I go along with the comments about the curvature, I prefer it as a straight barrelled pen.
Terry - if you don't like the smell I guess you wouldn't like the souks of North Africa where thuyja comes from, it smells exactly like the dusty spice markets.

Love the Thuya and the kit is superb

I echo the comments about the shape, but despite that and the bling (both of which are just matters of personal taste) that is a very fine pen Johnny.

Liking the wood. It is quite blingy .. look for a guy with spinners on his Hummer.. again personal taste, but then the market gets what the market wants.
