After not being able to get into the workshop for a while now (Work 🙄) finally managed to get and turn some blanks I had ready trimmed and glued up.
The end result is 14 Beaufort Ink Sirocco pens, some with my blanks and some purchased.

More for stock - getting ready for the fairs around my way to start 🫤🫣🤞🤞🤞🤞

That’s a good name for it! Couple of years ago I used to sell my pens out of mini waste bins sat on the table top of the local show. Took me awhile (yup slow on the uptake!)……..”have a look at the pens in the bin madam, they should be just what you are looking for”. Didn’t make many sales first out"….i wonder why???

You will soon Tom and Thank You 🙏
No problems just telling the truth. Getting used to bright colours. Have to wear sunglasses going out the ones I am wearing at present are a very old pair you would buy in a seaside shop and are all scratched. I wore varifocal glasses so can see quite well with good eye but blurred with the other that needs done. Left glasses and sunglasses in to get plain glass in left eye. So hopefully with the varifocal lens in other will be able to see properly. As screen on phone seems curved at present...
