Thanks. And right after I posted it I realized that I set the bar kind of high for myself.

Very good stuff!

I appreciate all the comments. I am still new to this and am learning every time I make a new pen. The positive feedback makes it that much more fun to do. Thanks again.

Welcome Jay! Very nice pen. I'm partial to Buckeye Burl. I suspect you didn't stumble upon a lathe last week, how long have you been turning?

Well I turned my first pen 9 weeks ago. Bought my own lathe 5 weeks ago.

Thanks for the compliment. I appreciate it.
