Jr Gent, Bengals colors

[alamocdc]

One of my repeat customers ordered a pen in Bengals colors and this is what I came up with.

The other side is more black than orange. This is one of my favorite glue-ups to date and this stuff polished up like glass. Sorry about the photo quality. I guess I didn't get the distance set up right after shooting all those stoppers.

Man, you nailed the glue-up!

Of course, love the shape.

[jjenk02]

I like it[]

 

[darbytee]

Great execution and finish Billy, although I really dislike the Bengals (since they beat my Panthers this year).

 

[gerryr]

Very nice job, Billy. Looks like a pen for Harley fans too.[]

Excellent Billy. Love the glue up.

Thanks, guys! Fred, I can't stand the Ben Gals either, but... My dislike got even worse a few years ago when they "guaranteed" a victory over the Texans and managed to pull it off despite having a worse record at the time. [!]

But money is money and if they want it, I'll make it and smile very politely as I'm collecting.[}][] The same holds true for Ohio State themed pens. I can't keep them in stock and I make about 20 a year.

Oh yeah, did I mention... GO BLUE!!!! The big game is coming up Saturday.

Billy,
Very nice. The X really makes it sing. BTW, I shipped your wood today (before I got the needle)[].

Very nice Billy. I like the everything about it. Where did you get the blank (or is it a homebrew)?

 

[alamocdc]

Dario, I'd like to take credit for this blank, but it's actually from an Inlace Acrylester test block that I bought from Ryan (Woodturningz) earlier this year.

Hey, that's not fair! I never quit liking you and I KNEW you were a Bengals fan. []

 

[Tangboy5000]

LOL, that pen is fantastic.

 

[Ptolemy]

Very nice pen. I really like how you lined up the clip perfectly with the top of the curve.

Love the blank and curves. Overall a superb pen.
