HRB jr gent 2

[crabcreekind]

So this was a peice i totally forgot about when i was looking for "wow" blanks for my 4 jr gent 2's i bought. I found this one. I Had bought it from exotics a while ago. It is really awesome! I was surprised it was not bought when i got it, it did have a big chunk out of the end, which i cut off anyway when i cut the blank. So i didnt worry about that. The ca finish was a total pain. Because i did not sand the edges of the barrels and the ca lifted off the blank when i pushed the hardware in. It also took me 1/2 hr to bang the coupler out. MY hang hurt sooo bad! But the rhodium ring and the bottom have came off. So if you need to take apart a jr gent 2 coupler, and make a custom band. That is how you do it. Mess up and get lucky it comes apart. Anyway this is my new favorite wood pen. O i almost forgot. This is honduran rosewood burl if you didnt know what HRB meant.
