holly

The Holly turned out beautifully. It's pure white! I'm not completely sure if I like it with this Titanium Gold plating and Titanium Black cap. It's a more feminine style pen I guess. Jr. George rollerball pen kit with CA finish.

I was going for a piano theme with African Black wood for a barrel and a Holly cap. The kit is a Panache desk Rollerball from Craftsupply. This is my first public display so CC are welcome. I learned a lot from reading this forum daily.

I finally tried my hand at an closed end pen but I wanted to go for the double closed-end. This is my first one. I don't have a closed-end mandrel so I had to figure out another way. I went to a local IAP club meeting a couple of weekends ago and I we saw a demo about how to make a closed-end...

My first piano pen. African Blackwood and American Holly on rhodium Jr. Gent 2. Finished with wipe on poly. Gave this to my daughter's piano teacher when he turned 80. The blanks are available from Ken Nelsen at Kallenshaan Woods. Thanks for looking... all comments welcome. Adrian in Indy.
