Wow,that's pure class!

Thanks everybody!

Steve, I didn't think it was too dificult to work with. I will definatley be getting some more of it. I really took my time drilling to keep the heat down and used a new carbide cutter so that it was really sharp, but other than that it was a breeze.

Well done looks really good, to STOP heat build up when drilling a blank try DNA sprayed from a plastic squirt bottle straight into the hole and on the drill bit while drilling, use a plastic container to catch the drips and reuse the DNA,remove all the big leftover turnings then put a rag over the top of the plastic bottle, push the rag down into the bottle a bit then tip in the old DNA back into the bottle,The rag will strain of all the small leftover bits.

Looks fun! did you mean to change up the center band like that? Its different thats for sure.

 

[farisdayoff]

Nope that was a case of not paying attention during assembly. Big palm slap to the head when i noticed that last night.

Not sure if I can disassemble it with the plastic thread insert in there.

I have knocked many of those out so it can be done. Make sure you have the punch set that is needed to do it right. The pen looks great though..

Great looking pen! Congrats!

Stunning pen! Like the blank, perfect with the kit. The gold center band makes a great accent. Well done!
