These are a few from the past month. The segments are my first serious attempt. The bottom 2 in the segment photo are CA finished, top one, Beall 3 wheel buff (Tripoly, White Diamond, Wax)
The Jr. Gent's are my first. African Blackwood and Eucalyptus Burl. Beall Buffing system.
The slimlines are Lacewood and Redwood burl. CA finished.
The click is Zebrawood. Disappointed that I didn't get the top and bottom section lined up right. I may disassemble and retry. I think I figured out how to do it. It's a bit tough because of the thread. But I think if I screw the thread in first, line it up and press that should work. CA finished.
Comments, critiques welcome.
Couldn't have done them without you all!
Thanks to Leroy at Smitty Pen Works for the excellent Jr. Gent, bushings and speedy service! Will definitely be using him again. www.smittyspenworks.com
Thanks to Mike from Indy Pen Works for the beautiful Eucalyptus Burl!
