First time post with a Karl Kuehn blank

[Roy_Quast]

Hi....
This is the first time I have posted on this site although I have been looking around it for some time. Earlier this week I was lucky enough to find Karl's new listing of some of his blanks. I was able to grab 4 of them at first and then 2 more later in the week. These will not be the last I buy from him. Here is a pic of a sierra click with a "potpourri-summer morning" blank. When I was turning this blank, I really could smell the potpourri. At first I just thought I was smelling something funny but then realized the name of the blank... Finish is 5 coats of CA, MM to 12K.

Nice pen, interesting blank, and the photo format is somehow familiar...

Wow, Roy, that's the first one of that color I've seen turned! Very nice, and I love the photo! That background is really nice!

They do smell neat, don't they? heh...I wish you could preserve that smell, but they do need a finish don't they? Makes for a nice shop smell, though.

Well done, Roy!

I'd like to thank all of you for the positive replies. Especially from Karl beings it is one of his blanks. I know that I kind of copied Karl's style of photographing pens, but when you don't have a clue about what looks good, why not copy from the best. I hope Karl takes this as a compliment.
