It just goes with everything. This one is still a secret. It's for my mom's birthday! I posed it on my Facebook album, but didn't say what/who it was for. She is in the habbit of frequenting my pen album and looking through all the new pens. I always get the comment "Oooh I like that one". I tell her, "Mom, let me make you one. What kind would you want for your personal use?". Her answer is always the same. "Oh, you don't need to make me anything that fancy. I'd just end up hurting it."
Well, looks like my rule breaking as a child has prepared me for this one event! Because this baby is fancy. My hold out Burls N Swirls blank that I have been hiding away for a very special pen paired with a black titanium Navigator (she has smaller hands so a Gent or larger kit was out) was as nice a combo as I could come up with. The moon and stars aligned just for this one pen and I was able to make it start-to-finish in under 20 minutes including the CA finish! No hang-ups, breaks, tear outs, chips, spots, waves, hold-ups or anything to slow me down. Easily the smoothest pen build I have ever done. And I have done TONS of this kit before. I was ready for a fight, but it just refused to cause me any problems. Okay, I'm done rambling....now LOOK AT THE PICTURES! :biggrin:
