Caden_Hrabak's Teaser

So I finished Caden's pen today. It's waiting for an address. And while you're waiting, Caden, here's your teaser . . .

 

[Mike of the North]

Pens from OLDMAN5050

I got two great pens from OLDMAN505 a red white and blue pen and a pen made from a 50 year old tobacco stick that was used to hang and dry tobacco, plus a load of blanks. THANK YOU so much, way beyond my expectations.

 

[Caden_Hrabak]

That looks soo cool CSue

 

[RAdams]

I agree with Caden, That is a pretty cool picture! Looks like abstract art or something...

It is now in the "Yeah, right" cup.

Wow, a "Yeah, right" cup! You must be way better than me, I use a whole bottom drawer in my rollaway as a "Yeah, right" drawer, and it's getting full

I'm having to update my teaser for George, the blank I was planning on using turned out to look a lot better square than it did turned down to size. Oh well. And the tooth I was planning to use seems to have been abducted by the shop gremlins, so I had to sub in another critters dentalwork. So, here's the mark 2 teaser pics.

 

[jskeen]

IT'S DONE!!!

I was telling my PITH partner about my "User pen rack" on my desk in a recent pm, and how I rotate most new fountain pens I make through it for at least one cartridge of ink before they go in the "ready for sale" box. So...... I thought I'd post a quick pic. George, Your PITH is on here somewhere, Wanna guess which one? Don't worry, there is still a surprise or two you can't see
