Gemini

[wudnhed]

We were having a discussion in the penturning forum on how these pen kits are lousy to put together but I found some help and figured out how they work. Sorry my camera is lousier than the pen kit but here they are anyway. Bottom is a cat blank from Ed4copies next is purpleheart from Kelvin the purplr acrylic is also from Ed and the poplar is from somewhere

Your picture didn't turn out to well, it is that dreaded red X.

Great minds think alike huh Roy[]

Becca, tell me the secret to putting them together, I order 10 of them about six months ago and after messing up two of them, putting them together, I stpped trying.

You know, I think those clips are supposed to be in line with the blank. (one of my other issues with this kit, I think even with CA, the clip is going to scratch the body badly.

Only numbers and letters are allowed in the filename. No spaces or special characters.

Can't say I care for that kit. It's too busy.

Believe me, I was just glad to get these done and to work, I won't be ordering anymore! I have some younger nieces that will love them for X-Mas[]

Oh, my poor gemini pen! [V][V][V] It's being maligned so! [][]

Just kidding- I know most people don't seem to like it- I figure someday they're going to stop making it since I think there may only be about 6 of us in the whole US that like it, and we probably don't buy enough to justify continuing to make it!

I do like these pens you made! And usually you can just bend and put a little pressure on the clip to make it more straight, but I kind of like the funky way it sits, so I usually leave mine like that.

I like the Gemini, but I have had some returns with it. The nib end piece that is pressed into the tube is very thin in some areas. I have had a few of them just separate and the whole nib end comes off.[]
