My first closed end

[pshrynk]

I decided to take the time to learn a new skill. This is an Apollo closed end done in African ebony. About half way through I recalled the travails that some folks have had with ebony and CA. It was a bit touchy but I think it turned out okay. The ends could do with a bit more CA.

And the cap wasn't quite up to sales standard, but it'll make a pretty good pen for work.

You've done a good job on that one !

Ebony is tricky, as you already know.

Plus the instructions for those PSI Closed End kits are kinda "off" or inadequate in places, and that does not help

The thing is, though, those kits serve as a "stepping stone" for your development of ideas and skills, to move on to kitless . . BRAVO !!
