Several firsts

Mea Culpa. [B)]
These blanks were sent out by Jeff as samples.
He sent two pairs to four of us to test and review.
I missed a point in his email, thinking only that he'd post our collective
impressions. If anyone asks, y'all didn't see these yet. [)]
Jeff will be posting everyone's pens along with our reviews. Stay tuned.
My apologies Jeff.

First time using Stabilized Dyed blanks. First time making the Jr. Gent II.
Methinks these are the same blanks Ernie has on sale right now.

All comments, good and bad, welcome.

Hi Gary, All the pens are very nice, Great work.

One comment - I would avoid taking a photo's on the keyboard, as the bottom picture gives the illusion that the pen is slightly bannana shaped! []


Or is it just me![xx(]

[GaryMGg]

Thanks y'all.
Kenny,
I'm sure it's a camera operator problem. I've tried moving back from the pen; must've still been too close.

Gary ,

Dont worry! Your photo's are much better than mine. I didn't realise that I needed to master two disciplines when I started this! Penturning and photography![]

Great looking pens Gary.

Good looking pens Gary, but I thought Jeff was going to post the photos when we were all done. [?] And I too agree the keyboard gives the optical illusion that the pen is curved or bent.

Yup, I was planning to post everyone's photos and evaluations at once. []
