First pens are always a thrill !!!! . Nice work ...

Now that you've done 2 slimlines and a Cigar, I'd recommend that you do a 30 Cal Bolt Action pen kit and a Sierra Twist (or a Mesa or Gatsby or Zodiac, which are very similar). . You'll find those easier than slimlines/Cigars and perhaps more satisfying to make.

Rick, well done. Your work shows planning, creative risk and commitment to execution. Keep em coming, we all look forward to supporting your expression of the craftsman's art.

Great First Pens, Rick,
Excellent Blanks, Nicely Turned, Fitted and Finished.
Though for my preference, I would rather see less of the "Wasp Waist", and more of a "Slender Girth".
But that is just my Ideal.
I would suggest that you try to keep your "First" Pen, to be used as a Comparison to your Future Pens, over the coming Weeks, Months and Years, to Gauge the Progress you have made in our Craft.
Congratulations, I look forward to Critiquing your Future Pens,
Brian.
