Hello all,
Here are three Metro/Virage rollerballs. This is the first time that I have used this kit and I'm really impressed with the hardware, shape of the nib and overall shape/size/taper of the barrels. I think it will step up to my favorite goto rollerball kit.
The first is Ancient Kauri flanked by Irish Bog Oak, the second is Irish Bog Oak flanked by Bloody Basin Jasper Trustone and the third is Cherry Burl. The finish on all is walnut oil followed by Wood Doctor's Pens Plus followed by Wood Doctor's Microcrystalline Wax.
As an aside, the segments are separated by aluminum that came from a blue Budweiser Light can that is shaped like a bottle. As I'm trying to show in the last picture, it's maybe twice as thick as the aluminum in a regular soda can. So if you haven't tried it, there's potentially a new resource for you,
Mike
