Big Leaf Maple, 2nd Pen.

[KingBentley]

First off, thanks to all who left comments on my last post. I took a pen that I turned for my wife yesterday and then proceeded to take it apart tonight and turn it down using a digital caliper. Still not perfect by any means, but I'm pretty happy about it. Please let me know if I need to focus my attention anywhere else.

That is sweet and I love that it is a true slimline. Most of my slimlines turn out too pregnant.

I agree... you did a great job of getting it even and it looks great!

Thats a great looking slimline! Even your finish compliments with wood well. Very nice.

Nice pen. I like the shape and the finish. I agree about most slimlines being too "pregnant" LOL.

Lovely work, I like the simple straight shape too!

Looks like you did a great job on the fit and the finish (and a pretty nice blank to start with).

Thanks for the positive remarks!! You know, my first instincts told me that making a slimline pen would be the easiest to do, but man was I wrong!! Getting the pen to make a straight line wasn't easy at all.
