I ordered some black ti cigars (see the show-off forum for pics) from Woodturningz. I immediately noticed they weren't PSI cigars since the PSI black ti cigars have chrome-looking accents rather than black epoxy (I didn't really care).
Anyhow, I called them about it and they said that the black ti are an import they bring in themselves, and they seem good. The Ti plating really is beautiful.
Just one problem. The black enamel accent on the upper barrel band that accepts the pen tranny is too narrow. The enamel is too thick on several of the pens. Makes the twist action rough and crude feeling. Anyone else have this problem? I can use some 600 grit silicone carbide paper to file it down inside the band, I'm sure... or perhaps chuck it on lathe and sand down the tranny a tad... just a bit frustrating.
I haven't even bugged Woodturningz about it yet, thought I'd ask here if anyone else had that problem.
