Amboyna with Sapwood on Gold Jr. Gent Ballpoint

[joefyffe]

Thanks Texatdurango for the advise on this piece of wood !! :smile-big: Finally found a good use for the laser light thermometer besides ribs and chicken. Kept the high speed c/a application temperature at around 100 F. No cracks in the wood!

Very nice. You started with a gorgeous piece of wood and you did a great job of fit and finish on it.

That's one mighty fine pen.

Gorgeous blank and outstanding workmanship. Congrats.

I love amboyna using the both the gold and flame wood, and cut at an angle to boot! Nice!

That's a colorful piece of lumber. Nice finish Joe!

Thanks, Chuck! BUT, credit goes where credit is due. I would not have had that finish if it weren't for George! He's my Amboyna Guru!:smile-big: You missed the fingerprint on that one, didn't you!

George has been the go-to guy for many of these puzzles to be solved. If I would have seen the finger print, I sure would have told you about it :tongue::biggrin: But then....how many times does a guy have to be told??:biggrin: Great work Joe!:wink:

I was just trying to cause you to go back and try to find it!Then I could have said Gotcha! :biggrin:

I will take a closer look at this on Saturday, to see if it is indeed worthy. :biggrin: I figure after a few :beer::beer::beer::beer: it will look good even if it didn't, but I am sure it does.

I have a kitless demonstrator of his to drop off, that I have been working on the nib of. Can you say smoooooootthhhhhh!

 

[joefyffe]

My current assesment? Saturday is going to be a fun day. :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: You did not fill the converter with bic ink, did you?:curse: OOps, silly me!! if you had, it wouldn't be smoooooth, now would it?? BTW what is that real smoooooooth ink and paper you were telling me about???

 

[paintspill]

just a little confused. i haven't seen one of these. is the jr gent ballpoint a twist? the fountain and rollerball are both screw caps. ??

This thing is writing smooth on a post it note! Right now it has some PR DC Supershow Violet in it. As long as you don't use this nib as a toothpick, I think you will enjoy it.

Toothpick? Wouldn't that make my teeth purple?
DC Supershow is what that pen was broken in on. Great, Fantastik, Super, Nice Ink! All right wingers deserves a bottle of that!
