This Atrax in thula burl was one of those pens that you almost give up on. One of the first tubes blew out. I cut a new blank and started again. With more careful turning they were turned nicely. The finish was an issue as new potholes kept appearing. When the surface was smooth a dull spot appeared when polishing with one step (twice!). I guess I'm stubborn and got the finish right today. While assembling the pen I found I was missing a trim ring. Several searches of the shop left me frustrated. After an hour a glint in one of the concrete expansion recesses was the missing ring. Whew! Never give up.
I may charge more for it...
