I received a couple blanks to test by Constant. When I signed up, I didn't realize I was going to be traveling so much getting the new Ministry and all. In between I've got to break down the shop for moving (ugh!)

But I was able, before boxing up tools, to turn this one. The blank is Buckeye burl. Pretty blank and sized right. I did find that one area on the blank as I was turning wanted "dig deeper" in a spot, but nothing that couldn't be easily adjusted with the next cut. When I got to the "skews" turn, it cut very nice. I had no pits and when I was done with the skew it really didn't need sanding. Although I did give it a quick 1000 grit swipe. It took the CA finish very nicely.

PSI Ti Gold Polaris Click/Buckeye Burl/Ca Finish/Ren Wax.

This is my second click I've done. This one is going to be my Suit Jacket Pen for Sundays. After all, it is personal, it's Buckeye, and since I'm moving to Delaware, I've got to keep my home State of Ohio nearby.
