It's Lotus Time

[OKLAHOMAN]

My thanks To Gary Nichols (CaptG), for this outstanding blank. As always all comments welcome, good bad or anything in-between. Is it too much bling?

 

[BRobbins629]

Bling works for me. Nice collaboration.

TOO MUCH BLING? That's like being too RICH or too THIN! It'll never happen in my lifetime. Way to go, Roy and Gary! Bella Penna!

Industrial time?? Looks super Roy, Gary did a super job on that set. and you did a fine job of turning it.

Ho-ly smokes. Roy I think you out did yourself on this one. That is pretty darn sharp!

 

[chriselle]

Bling it on man.....BLING.....IT........ON!! :biggrin:



I want one of those!

It would be too much for me, but tastes vary. I've seen people pay
good money for things I'd never pay for (haircuts.. cars that run..
wardrobe.. ) There's a market for everything, especially if it is well done.
This is well done and someone will snap it up.

Outstanding

Looks great!! The WOW factor is there.

Just checking, the clock parts are backed on carbon fiber? If so great combo. Those blanks have to be time consuming. (No pun intended)

I would be sweating bullets trying to turn that great looking pen.

I'm not usually a bling guy, but this one is spot on. Very nice.

Thanks everyone all for your comments.
JW, yep it's over carbon fiber, as to turning, Gary's blanks turn like butter, no need to sweat.

Very nice Roy

First time I have seen a Lotus. Looks like an over sized Ultra Cambridge with a statesmans clip?

 

[jttheclockman]

I see you turned it BB was there any doubt about the material being able to fit on that kit??? I have never done one of those kits so I am not familar with the kit size and blank size. Thanks for showing. looks good.

Roy, Beautiful ! I really like the bling! Looks very elegant..timely piece:biggrin:. I think you will sell that pen in a heartbeat! Regards, Doc

Due to the trouble I have typing I don't comment on many pens but I cannot resist on this one. This is one of the best looking pens I have seen.

John, the components have lots of meat on them for the watch parts, I did go BtoB on the lower barrel but if you look close in the cap you'll see that at the CB I had to flair it slightly so I didn't get into a gear right at the CB.

 

[Rangertrek]

Roy, that looks great. Very eye catching!

Looking good pen there Roy. The carbon fiber does look nice and solves the problem of trying to get the perfect paint job.

Hey next time your down this way give me some notice and I will try and have something special to pay that Cuban off with :wink:

Nice work that has got to bring in some BIG $$$$
