Berea Blade clicker and two Manager Rollerballs. One of these is more of the oak burl from my property. I like this kit but I wish it were postable.

These are pens 5, 6 and 7 for me.

Guy, they are nice looking pens, for only being your 5th, 6th and 7th pen they look very nice. You are good at getting a nice finish in your pens also, so you are well on your way. These pens are just a bit under turned, or at least they look like they are. I would like to see you make a couple of pens, that have no curve, a straight walled pen. When first starting out, I found them to be more nerve wracking. Simply because I had to turn the wood so thin, and it was Slim-line kits from a P.S.I. that I was using. I purchased them from a reseller of P.S.I. products here in Canada. Good luck, and be careful not to get injured.

It was from exotic blanks. About 6 bucks for the rollerball I think.

I think you're right. My first three were slimlines and they were pretty straight. The clicker looks pretty much like the examples with the swell on the barrel. I like swell on the cap of the Manager but the bottom needs to be straighter. I think this last one is a little better.
