Thanks MarkWOW! So many superb elements, and wonderful execution. That is one to be mighty proud of! Thank you for the inspiration with your segmenting.
Thanks Kenny, the kitchen sink is in the case but I had to remove the taps......Very nice work. I tried blowing up your pictures to see if I could find the kitchen sink. Did you run out of room or did your wife say you couldn't have it?
Thanks Mike, love a bit of Alice in ChainsThat is awesome! Layne Staley would be proud -
Thanks Mal it's 9/16" for the cap andVery impressive ! ! !
There does not seem to be much wall thickness . . .
. . . what diameter are the two brass tubes ? . . . please . . . and I hope you don't mind my asking . . . just wondering.
Thanks Mal, it's 9/16" for the cap and 15/32" for the barrel. The outer diameters ended up being 16mm cap and 15mm for the barrel (sorry for mixing up measurements) so the cap doesn't have much left left when turned down but I needed the tube inner diameter to take the insert, cap thread and sectionVery impressive ! ! !

This is awesome! You have come up with a very unique color scheme that works so well! Did you make the hardware (the red tubing)?? I am just trying to understand your process as I would like to make a kitless pen sometime.Holly, Red tulip veneer, cream and burgundy credit cards and red mother of pearl kirinite

Thanks ChuckIt should be noted, the amount of work involved in making this pen should not be taken lightly. And I don't. I commend you on your execution on detail, and creating a masterpiece. Very well done Eric.
Thanks DonHaving made several 360 herringbone blanks I know how much work and especially time is involved. I love your pen, your choice of materials and the execution is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Do a good turn daily!
