Todd,
From what I see in your photo, your pen looks to be of good construction and fine finish. However, and please take this in the sense given, your photo is a bit fuzzy. There is an excellent article in the library that will help your photography. http://content.penturners.org/library/techniques/pen_photography.pdf. Try and give it a read. Always strive for perfection, but never allow reality to put you down. Have fun, make shavings and as always share.

Nice work !! I would take a half round router bit and round over the edges of your pen holders. It will give them a sleaker and more polished look. Also sand and finish them. You are not only showing off your pen, but your craftsmanship as well. Welcome to the fold !! Jim S

Welcome Todd, nice work on the pens. Interesting that pen turning was your wife's idea. You should reward her with one of the bangle guy's bangles.:wink: Looks like your skills are up to it.

Welcome to IAP!
