Olga's 60th

[qquake]

This is a Nouveau Sceptre fountain pen I made for my friend's 60th birthday. It's made from a birch branch Olga picked up when we were at the Marshall Gold Discovery site in Coloma, CA. I just finished the engraving. I am so happy with how it turned out!

I was sweating it, the laser was set too low at first. But I didn't move the pen, and was able to go over it a second time.

Thank you. Do you have the 3500 mw model? You engraved it in 2 passes? Thank you.

No, I have the 7w. I engraved the lower body in two passes, and the upper in one pass.
