Been making a bunch of sierra-style (sierra, wall street, aero, tapa pacifica, and others) for a client. Needed a change of pace. Started this pen weeks ago, and finally managed to finish it. Finally finished drying the finish today, which came out nice and shiny (not really evident here, I need...

Cambridge w/Tigerwood - the finish is BLO under twenty-four coats of thin CA. I do not use accelerator so there is at least 30 minuets of drying time between each coat. http://www.penturners.org/photos/images/35554/medium/1_AFC7E807-C2BB-4254-BDAC-207CE821AADD.jpeg View in Gallery...

A client of mine came to me with three Thuya burl blanks and wanted Cambridge's made from them. The first thing I noticed was this stuff is super oily. It turns really well and smells nice too, like cedar burl. I had some issues with the CA finish, until I bought a new bottle to replace the...

Had a few parts leftover so I put this one together. So much gold on the hybrid version of the kit this is from just looked too gaudy (even more than it already does:rolleyes:), so I put some black components from a churchill on to tone it down a little. Definatley not my favorite kit in the...

Just started turning these kits this week and I really like them. The first is a Cambridge (Titanium / gold with sterling silver accents) done in Claro Walnut. I added a Romeo & Juliette Cuban cigar band. The second is another Cambridge (Sterling silver with Titanium / gold accents)done in Box...

This was the first time I tried a fully modified pen - it took me all of 11 hours to make and every minute was fun and frustrating at the same time! It has some flaws but I learned so much from making it that I hope to not repeat them. This, as the title says, is a modified Cambridge from...
