Marla has been working a lot and asked me to turn a couple pens for her friends. How could I say no? A Chrome Regal from William Wood-write, unfortunately no longer available. They are sold under the name Zoe in the US. I don't know what they would be called if available in other countries. The blanks were from Jonathon Brooks out of the US. They are polyester castings that Marla has had for ten years. Turned between centres with a skew, sanded with 320,400, then #0000 steel wool and then polished with a Beall buffer.

I appreciate the complements. Marla has another 8 or so of those blanks with some colour differences so I might be tasked again to do more. I found out another US seller uses the name Diana for it raising the possibility more will take them on. Being a Dayacom kit they are of a decent quality and can be bough directly if you want to buy lots and lots from them. They use 8mm tubes and finish up about 10mm outside diameter.
