Those are awesome. Ok now I'm jealous.[]

Wow, absolutely awesome, you are the man! Outstanding job turning those, I know that unstabilized wacky grain is a little dicey to turn. Those turned out wonderful!

Great Color and overall fantastic group!

Ok I have to ask to you have them engraved before you assemble them. Wow they look awesome. You did a fantastic job of turning. And nothing more can be said about Karls blanks.

I like the wood and the kit but would also love to see it in the Rhodium finish. Whoever gets them will be lucky to have them to write with.

I've got a Jr. Statesmen Rhodium/Black Ti kit and one more blank. Now if I would have been smart enough to order the bushings for it when I ordered everything else, you could see that blank done in that style. [:I]

They look great Grizz. I have to say, the bushings for those gents and your JR statesman II are the same bushings. So get turning You can also order the JR Retro kits which use the same bushings as well.

I believe Grizz posted pics of Gentlemns pens. He made mention that he needed bushings for a Jr Statesman's pen. The bushings for the full size and the Jr size are different.

I think I might emigrate to USA just to get some of that wood
