Statesman Jr. FP

[WoodChucker]

The Statesman Jr. fountain pen is my favorite. This is one of the kits I got from our friend (Anthony)on the group purchase. The Greek Olive-Wood blank came from another one of our friends (Mike), and it sure is a nice one (thanks Mike)! The finish is friction polish. Thanks for looking!

Dang R.T., I'm the first to see this. It is truly beautiful. I must get some Jr Statesmen kits. Nice, nice work.

Very beautiful! Such a nice job

 

[WoodChucker]

Thanks William, if you have never tried one I think you'll be very happy with it. It's an easy pen to make and shows off the wood very nice.

 

[WoodChucker]

Thanks Jeff!

Great looking pen R.T. I havn't tried one of these kits either but looks like I am going to have to give one a try.

Really great work and look!

 

[woodpens]

That's about as good as it gets! That is my absolute favorite pen kit, and the wood is loaded with figure. The finish looks great. Way to go!

If Dudley Moore were still with us I'm sure he'd give you a <b>10!</b> Beautiful, R.T.

Nice job RT, that Greek olive wood is really nice wood to turn. I've bought some and have more on the way because I liked it so much.

Hmmm? - can I buy this one back? [:I] - joke!!

 

[WoodChucker]

Wow, thanks everyone! Really appreciate all the compliments, I really like it too, so it makes me feel good that all of you like it also. []

Mike, I used a friction polish from CSUSA.

Very handsome pen you've got there! I sure love those 10K and Platinum Gentlemen's Pens

 

[WoodChucker]

Thanks Niles, yeah the Statesman and Gentlemen series pens are real nice and one of my favorite kits.

 

[driften]

You made a very nice pen! You did a great job!

[swm6500]

Beautiful pen R.T. Keep up the good work.

 

[WoodChucker]

Thanks Sam!

 

[melogic]

Awesome job R.T.! Is there any difference in the rollerball and fountain Statesman as far as turning? Is it just the writing mechanism the only difference in the two? I may have to try a fountain in this style. All I've done is the rollerball and I love them. These are my favorite kits. Again, good job and display of craftsmanship.

 

[WoodChucker]

Thanks Mark! No difference in the way there turned. From the outside there both the same.

 

[Glenn McCullough]

Beautiful pen, RT. that'll haul in a few bucks...and it won't take long, either. I'll be looking for some of that wood....

[WoodChucker]

Thanks Glenn! If you want some check with Mike, he has a post in the classified forum. He might be out, I'm not sure. But if you e-mail him either Mike or Sharran with keep in touch with you and let you know when they have it. There great people to work with and you won't be sorry you waited.
