Ron, the serpent rod is very nice and goes well with the kit. You might want to check your bushings or runout on your lathe, looking at the lower part of the blank.

Ron I love that serpent rod, it looks great with that pen, heck it looks good on about any pen. Everybody has said it's a pain to drill because it heats up too fast,

Tried zylostyle & serpent rod search. No good. Where do you get the stuff. That's a nice pen & a beautiful blank.

It is'nt the blank it's the pen.I thought it was just the picture but got to messing with the pen last night and where the tube goes over the nib end there is a bunch of play.I checked some other Wallstreets and none of them have near as much play as this one.When held in my hand it looks normal.But when you prop it like I had it in the pic it becomes noticable.I did'nt notice it till you pointed it out.Thanks.Will have to put it on another kit.

That is a very pretty color combo. All the black in the Sierra really compliments the dark shades in the blank. Very nice work.

That blank is really nice. Glad I have 4 rods coming my way.
