How can the two bits from one bit of timber end up so different? I thought that bit of wood from a dead shrub a few years ago looks nice, :down: wrong! then to really piss me off I seem to have lost my touch of doing a six cut Celtic Knot, glad I don't try to sell pens init!:sob:

I think the only thing wrong with it is the thickness of your inserts I bet it would have looked a lot better if they were thinner

Looking at the pen I'd agree with Woody, it just looks like the wrong thickness on the inserts

A 6'r is a special thing Ted and you've mastered it in the past and I'm sure you will again. If it was easy I'd be doing it as well :thumbs:
