I just logged on to post these pens when I noticed this post from Jeff Powell (Workinforwood) http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=51499

Pretty appropriate.... Several weeks ago I contacted Jeff and asked if he could make me a blank to use for a pen I wanted to make for a friend of mine who is a serious Harley Davidson fanatic. I wanted something black, with flames. Jeff made two blanks. The first one is now a closed end Jr. Gent II Rollerball. The second is a Sedona Rollerball that would have been closed end also if I hadn't forgotten how to measure correctly:frown:. Both sport black titanium hardware. Now I have to decide which one to give him.:rolleyes: Thanks Jeff, and congratulations on the article:good:.

All comments welcomed.

Nice job Mike. They look real good. Is the orange more orange than the photo shows, or did the black dull the orange down a bit? I was rather worried about pouring black into black flames, but apparently that was no problem at all.

Mike wanted flames for the cap, inspired by the recent laser pens with flames on the upper barrel, so I says..oke doke!

Jeff, the photos are slightly duller than the actual pens. The black didn't dull the orange much, if at all. I was very pleased. Thanks again!
