A good friend of mine found out that I was making pens from scratch and he asked me to make him a set. He is also a Police officer in my town so I said what the hell what have I got to loose.
He stated that he likes a thicker pen so I went about. Making the first pen and it came out nice and he loved it but after getting some feedback from this site I tailored the design just a little mainly in turning down to the bushings on each end of the 2 part pen. I was very nervous doing this after my mishap during the week.
I bought this kit from Woodcraft and also purchased the rosewood blanks from them as well, I was amazed at the Transformation of the blank the thinner it became and I loved this aspect, it's such an organic experience if that makes any sense.
