Black Locust Burl

[rd_ab_penman]

On a Chrome Vertex Click Parker Ballpoint.
I'm really getting to like these with the nice solid, noise free click mechanism.
Sanded to 400x, buffed with extra fine steel wool,applied 10 coats of Med CA Only my way and buffed with extra fine steel wool to knock down the high gloss finish.

Hi Les,

I do not like the goemetric design of the Vertex but you did a great job on the pen. Fit and finish is spot on IMHO. Be well............Jan

With razor sharp chisels, it turned like butter.

Very nice.
I like the vertex myself. Until this happens. Thought about putting a drop of ca on it to fix it. It's my personal pen that i use at work.
