Just a matter of preference and a bit of luck.

Actually getting the stars to align perfectly so that they end up both face up is quite a pain in the rear while trying to keep the final measurements right. If you notice these are about 20 degrees out of line as well.

Very nice work. Good you are going to have one for yourself. Suggestion: Put your initials on it to claim it. That way it is at least less likely it will come to be owned by someone else!

Funny how that works. I've made so many pens for myself that I end up selling.

Guess I keep telling myself that I'll just make another one but never do.
