Great job on the pen Hans!! Good choice on the Kit too, this wood needs something fancy to go along with it's natural beauty.
No need to get nervous, that Cocobolo Burl is very stable. I have only seen some slight movement in the blanks and no cracking whatever.

Nice wood and a nice finish. I'm not a big fan of the Emperor kits but that wood makes it look pretty regal.
