Salveged from the reject piale

[rovercat]

When I originally turned this pen I sanded the upper barrel down to much and the center band did not fit good. Today I made a center band out of Ebony and flared it a bit or it would have been to thin. I did not have a final that would work either so I turned on out of ebony also. Just to see if I could do it the final is pressure fit, No glue.Hope it does not break.
