newest segmented blank (sort of!)

[darrylm]

I've started working on a new segmented pen. So far this is what I've got done...

I've got somewhere around 250 pieces of maple, walnut and jotoba cut sanded and ready for some glue. I'm going to have six pieces to each segmented layer in the pen, so each piece has been cut at 30 degrees.

This should soon be a Jr Gent Rollerball and needs to be done before Friday.

Darryl, Nice job so far. Look forward to seeing the blank and then the finished pen.

Take lots of photos so you can do an article...

Nicest design of this type I have seen yet! You've got a LOT more patience than I have.

Darryl,

That is breathtaking work indeed unless you had shown me the parts of the puzzle I would have found it more than incredible.You deserve great recognition for your creativity.Top class production.

I view this pen as a bit of redemption for my first fountain pen that blew out on me while turning. I'm pretty happy with how it came out and now I'm ready to move on to the next one.
Thanks for the compliments, they are appreciated.
