Great looking pens Tony. Your in-laws will love them. Some of my first pens went to parent and in-laws too. Kirk[8D]

Nice job on the shaping of the barrels. I am normally not a big fan of curves, but these are very classy!

Tony these are some of the cooler slimlines I've seen. The walnut one almost looks like it wraps around the tip??? Please explain.
Great job.

I love that Pink Ivory. But I don't know why no one else who sees my pens does. My wife doesn't, ladies at the office doesn't. Even hundreds of people at two craft shows passed the Pink Ivory right on by. Go figure. I even had a Euopean round top and the Pink Ivory was actually a nice mellow brown color and I still have it.
Beautiful pens, Tony, with great lines. This is exactly why the slimline is one of my favorites. So many ways to make it beautiful.
And Mac, I've found that pink ivory needs some accents to get the attention it deserves. I try to go very dark or very light with either a custom centerband or a lamination. It makes the pink jump out!

Chuck,
The bottom one looks like it wraps around the nib but it doesn't actually. It was just the way the scan turned out.
I am glad everyone seems to like these. They are #7 and 8 of the pens I have turned so far. I have only had my lathe for a week now, so I am still experimenting with different woods and shapes. The slimlines are very versatile to work with and lend themselves to playing around.
