Third solo kitless

[Hippie3180]

I had a small run of bad pen making juju, but I kept at it and finally had another success. Not all days are good pen turning days, also the triple digits for so many days begins to wear on you. I was a bit discouraged for a few days, but I'm back at it.

Yes, I know the nib shoulder isn't flush. I've been making kitless for under two weeks, there's a learning curve here y'all.

I appreciate that, oddly enough I bought a small lot of excess blanks from another maker..all mix and match sort of thing. I just do my best to make them work.
