I think it is, and I like it! It's a Zen kit in chrome. I don't like the way it chips and turns to powder more than it turns into ribbons, but with a bit of BLO and CA, it really *pops*!
Tricky wood to turn Brad. Much easier with a metal lathe. Nice pen and photos. Jim S
I'll bring you a nice blank tomorrow...no chips, no powder...one of my favorites...nice job on that one.
I love curly Koa but it is tricky for sure. Great job and great finish.
How is that pen standing up? I don't see any stand or anything.
Stephen I beleive he uses a brad nail with the ink cartridge removed.
Maybe that is one of the "burl" type woods (even though it's not burl) that would benefit from stabilizing, not from punk, but from grain orientation.
