And my first Cigar pen!

I didn't know these things were soo big. Lol I tried a little wire burn on this one. The only problem I had with that was trying to get some of the CA fog out of the grooves. That doesn't work real well. Oh well, I'll know next time. Lol

Nice Pen Bobby,
After many Slim Lines almost any Pen looks big.
The Barrel Profile, makes a "Cigar Pen, Look Even Bigger", Turn it down to a "Flatter Curve", and it will look "More Proportional".
Good Finish,
Congratulations,
Brian.

So true Brian. I did taper down my 2nd one using a nice burl.

First of all, love the Pen. Very very nice work.

I agree with you about 50% of the time on this issue. Sometimes I like to make my pens minimalist, sometimes I just love a fat pen. Seems like my opinion sways on a daily basis when it comes to slim or fat cigar pens.

Here is one my father made last week with almost no curve, he's only been making pens for a few weeks but he loves a VERY slim cigar pen. Not my cup of tea, but to each his own I guess:




"Pen Turning on the Rock"

I like that slimmer look also! That's what I get for following directions. Lol
