Modern Segment.

[kkwall]

Hi All,


Just bought a mitre saw today, as I have been trying to make segmented pens on my bandsaw, but really need a good jig for it, that holds the blanks stady for cutting.


The Mitre saw is fantastic and makes it so much easier to make a good fitting joint.[8D]


Here is my first pen, made tonight.


Looking forward to doing more.

If anyone has any tips or tricks for using a mitre saw for segmenting, I'd be glad to hear them.[]

Great job! That looks really good.

I like the lamination very much. The shape is a bit chubby for my taste though. Overall, very nice.

Like the laminations but the shape is a bit too full for me as well.

BTW - do you get your pen boxes laser engraved in the UK? I can't find anyone to do it at a good price.

Regards

Richard

Hi all,


Thanks for the feedback.


Chisel - I agree also, it is not to everyones taste, but this shape appeals very much to women, and sells very well.

Pikebite - I'll send you a private mail with some details.

Nice segments, I agree with you that shape sells well for me also, My wife calls it The "HIPPIE shaped" pen.
