Thanks,
For me only the second attempt at segmentation. First attempt at doing centerbands. Still have a lot to learn - but having fun doing it.

I'm very happy to have won third place considering this is only my fourth pen. Many thanks to my dad for showing me how to turn and for helping with the photography. Congratulations to the first and second place winners! And thanks to JohnU for the pheasant feather blanks. I'm really looking forward to making a pen with them.

Thanks!
Josh

Wow, thanks everybody.
I'm ecstatic for second place, I honestly didn't think I'd place at all.

Congratulations to the other winners, and to all the other entrants - they are all nice pens.
