Don't screw it up Cav.
The pressure is on you.
That's the last of the first.
(When in doubt, a little more CA is ALWAYS needed)
The best time to stabilize a piece of wood on the lathe is a few minutes before you realized you should have.[}:)]

Eagle, I'm going to take a guess and say that the cross oval is actual a round dowel. And that hole is drilled on an angle.

I guess it is just SO ugly that you don't want to make another one. That's OK Eagle, just send the rest of the blanks to me.[8D]

I would have made it less B2B. It appears you went below the bushing on the CB. Other than that I like it.

Eagle,

As always, your work never ceases to amaze me.

That said, your evasiveness annoys the $#%& out of me. I understand it, but it still annoys me. [:D]

Sometimes it's best to just ADMIRE the BEAUTY.

Amazing!!!

Is this by luck or you intentionally lined it up (inlay's side to the wood line)?

BTW, I originally thought the wood was DI.

i have a question that i am hoping you will answer.
is this an inlay or, does the insert go right thru?

It's an inlay.I can do it on both sides if someone wants a custom blank,it would cost more though.
I have been toying around withthe idea of reversing the colors/woods in the same pen on opposite sides.

Eagle,

quit raising the bar higher and higher will yaa. Geez I can't find a ladder high enough to attempt any of your work. Another winner[:D]

side note to self: How does he do that with the cross not bisecting the oval's border? Must be another of those Cadbury secrets.

He is no longer on this forum. I believe if you really want to get a hold of his work, you can contact him at turn-pens-with.us or the same name with _ instead of -. (something like that)

John,
I have turned a couple of these, and the fit is perfect with the rest of the blank. Once turned and finished, they are smooth with the rest of the pen.
