First Cigar

[jbostian]

Well I finally tried something besides a slimline today. I was at Rockler store today and picked up a couple of the gold cigar kits for $3.99 a piece. I also picked up a pearl violet acrylic blank to try. I am planning on giving the pen to a friend and I think they will really like the color. For my first attempt and something besides the slimline I am pleased with the results. Thanks for looking.

You should be delighted with the results Jamie, for your first Cigar you got the fit perfect and the finish on the acrylic is beautiful, great work!

Well today I did my first CA finish and my first wood centerband on a slimline kit. I started a thread for that one too. I still like this cigar better but am pleased with the CA finish on the slimline. Thanks for the compliments.
