First "solo" pens

[JeffT]

After taking a while to get up and running, I finally have produced a couple of pens. These efforts have certainly reinforced the respect for craftsmanship shown by so many in this association... Pretty pedestrian instruments but plenty of room for aspiration!

The first is a slimline with the typical rookie profile (according to PenMan1)... Let's just say it's "Reuben-esque" :biggrin:

The next is a Wall Street II Click with acrylic. Time to start painting tubes!

Finally, although not a pen, is my version of making lemonade... When the top half of the slimline blew out, I found a use for the bottom half...

Comments and suggestions will be appreciated! Thanks for looking!

if you will put that busted half back on your lathe you can clean it up and reuse it or at least thats what I do. I still have alot of tubes with half a pen on them, that I looking for the right piece to add to it. I have only been at it for a couple of months myself.

Keep turning
