I'm moving on with pen number three, and at this point I think I will stop numbering them. I just squeezed this guy in before Memorial Day festivities in Naples (California, not Italy!).
This is a Premier Cigar in Platinum, and I turned a Gaboon Ebony blank for it. I was all set to finish it in CA, but after sanding it with Micro Mesh to about 3600 (probably overkill) I decided I liked it without any finish on it. I ended up using Satin and then Gloss polish, but it's still pretty subdued.
Thanks to all the helpful suggestions I received in my two previous postings, this one went very smooth. I love it, and plan on carrying it a while.
Sorry about the crummy pics...
