That’s very nice Kevin, lovely grain and well turned, and all from a reclaimed coffin.
You took your time, nice.

The quality of the kit in my view is excellent .. what I found confusing coz I am not that clever... was the setting up of the bushes you need to get that right and then being very careful on putting together... I would Really advise watching the video on the page as Phil suggested.... it made it all much easier... although the main body I had to really think about which was the nib end... on to the rollerball today...

Hi Kevin,
I would centre pop the top of your bushes, from left to right on your lathe. One centre pop on the first bush, two centre pops on your second bush etc;
You only need to put the bushes 1-4 in a line with your tubes. Simpples!
