Casing Challenge entry

As I was turning this project, it occured to me that, there are a group of people responsible for the making of this pen. Fred Brunings(BigShed) for the .308 casing kit, Mike and, Linda at IPD for the Lucite blank, Mike Roux(Bluwolf) for the ideas and knowledge to take on turning on a metal lathe and, a good friend who supplied the aluminum stock. Sorry, that person has to remain annonimous, cuz I promised :wink: Thanks for looking!

That is looking good to me for sure. Nicely executed. I think all parties involved did great.

Nice Chuck.... Like the design elements involved.

I really like that sapphire lucite. Just made a long click out of it.

You seem to have forgot the guy behind the lathe. I'd say he had a pretty big part in all this.

Nice job Chuck, it looks like you and your Micro Mark lathe are getting along just fine. Beautiful pen, good choice of materials.
