Olympian Elite Fountain Pen in Olivewood

[Bobostro61]

Made this one this afternoon. No carbide tipped tools used. Finally broke out my cheap turning tools (Benjamin's Best from PSI) and used only a roughing gouge to round it, and a skew to turn the rest of the way. Uncharted territory for me... As a side note, the wife will probably beat me for getting ink on the towel... Just another normal day I guess! Anyway, here's the pics.

Wait till you start using the microwave to dry blanks, that will determine how strong your marriage is!! LOL :biggrin:
