I have a Tiny Giant pen that I carry and use , I really like this style , simple , no mechanism , and postable cap . So I thought I'd give a Rollster a try before moving on to a Jr Gent or something along those lines , pretty much the same style as the Tiny Giant except bigger and a rollerball . I had a few AA blanks from ExoticBlanks and thought I'd try this one , "Gold Dust II"
I back painted the blank black , the tube was also painted black , and the epoxy was black also . Here it is on the lathe , almost done polishing
The pen came out nice , the black back painting and epoxy really darkened the turned blank , but I like it . I have one more of these blanks and think I may try a light color back paint next time , maybe a gold or yellow . Here's the pen all finished .
