My First One-Piece Pen

[t001xa22]

As usual, I am always researching info from the group, and trying to learn from the folks who were good enough to "show their stuff". This was one first shot at making a one-piece pen. I don't recall who contributed the articles about it, but my thanks to them. I started out simple with a basic slimline kit, and the main challenge was drilling through a longer blank, but it helped a lot that I do my drilling on the lathe. I picked a blank that would really be enhanced by showing an uninterrupted shaping. Thanks to Ed and Dawn for the Pink Passion blank that I chose. I will hopefully do more like this in some woods. Thank you for looking.

You made the right choice, that is a great blank for a one piece.

You are really stepping up. That is a looker and the clip couldn't be placed in a better spot. Great all the way around.

I thank you guys very much for your comments. Getting quality materials from folks like Ed and Dawn sure do make it easier.
