This pen represents a couple of firsts for me and is also a stepping stone.
This was my first time turning aluminum. I bought some AL rod of various sizes so I could have plenty of kit choices.
The carbon fiber half was my first (successful) tube in cast with Liquid Diamonds.
I am an Aircraft Mechanic so I have been thinking about doing one like this for a while. In the not do distant future I will add titanium. And do closed end as well.
The aluminum was easier that I expected to turn on my Jet 1015.
