Closed Ended Feathers

[skiprat]

Well, sort of feathers
I have been getting loads of blow-ups with CA recently an now I'm a Epoxy convert junky:biggrin: Held everything together and the slow set allowed me to move the inserts around till they were all in. This has thin ali and even thinner brass slices inside my favourite colour PR

 

[penmanship]

WOW! How does it turn & where can I get some?

VERY NICE

That is just gorgeous Steven! You've set new heights to aspire to!

Just when I think you can't make anything even more stunning than what you already have, you go and pop out something else to make me drool!

I've seen a lot of pens posted since we opened the doors almost 5 years ago, and that has to be one of the most beautiful. What an incredible piece of work!

Stunning is all I can say!

Steven , you are absolutely amazing . That pen is Totally Awesome !!!:worship::worship::worship:

 

[BRobbins629]

You are one cool pen making dude. Up there with the best of yours. I think the blowouts are just a reminder that this stuff isn't easy and it takes a master craftsman to complete one such as this. Well done!

 

[skiprat]

Thanks for the nice comments:biggrin: Gee, even the Boss Man likes it!!!

Tim ( Penmanship ), provided your tool of choice ( I used a scraper on this one ) is kept sharp and you take very light cuts at Warp 9 speed it turns ok. You can get the black pr ( or any other colour ) from PR Princess, but you'll have to dig in a bin to get the metal for the inserts:tongue:

Bruce, the kit is called 'Chrome Top' from Axminster in the UK. Not a wonderful kit. Just a snap cap and chromed finish. But nice for long blanks.

Cheers:biggrin:

Skiprat makes me jealous. :-( I inspire to be half as good one day.

Steven, how does an aluminum 'eagle' fly? Man, your pens are always airborne and above 'us' mere mortals. Great work, but oh umh, that's what we expect from you you.

 

[papaturner]

If totally awesome is better than just awesome then I agree with Butch.

Two words - Su perb! I love it! The black base really makes the metals look rich and classy. Two more words - Bra vo!
