I've seen those dookickey's on AS website and wondered how they'd look..they look fine and your pen is real nice

 

[jttheclockman]

Very well done. Nice finish. Can you give us a better look at the rose???

One other question, how are you chucking the blank to make the closed end??? Again very nice work. Love the wood.

I did a clicker in this wood for my physical therapist about a month ago. It went from an unknown to me to becoming one of my top 5 favorite woods. Then of course, I started working on this pool cue and used Afzelia Burl, which is about 800x harder than the Xylay lol. You did a nice job on that. Keep it up, I gotta get some more of that wood.

Fantastic work Amos, however, just my personal taste is that one do-hickey is enough. Lovely wood and shape though!

Awesome job, The do-hickeys do it.

Nicely done on the Do-Hickey (that would be a Done-Hickey?)!

Closed end pens look pretty sharp.

Thanks for the comments, John Crane, imagine having to meet you here in USA!!!? you are probably in the suburb next to me- i'm in Ferntree Gully.! Amos
Ligget, as for how many Do Hickeys? mmmmmm! depends on how I am feeling at the time and for whom I am making the pen.
Glen, nice to hear you again, and thanks for the encouragement. Amos
