    Default Executive Clicker

    Hi all,

    I have been a bit quiet on the posting front for a while so I though I would put up a pen or 2.
    This one is a gunmetal Executive Clicker from Timberbits.
    The blank come from John (walshjp17) which I got from this years Aus day swap.
    It is a beautiful piece of Spalted Sycamore, sanded to 1200 then given about 10-15 coats of Med CA. Micro Mesh than a bit of car polish over the top.
    I made the pen as a gift for my mum to give to the doctor that has been looking after my Grandmother who has been quite ill for a few months now. I figured being a busy man the clicker would be easier for him whilst writing notes etc.
    Any way hope u like it, comments/ critique welcome
    Cheers Ben

    Very nice Ben, good finish and timber choice, that spalting really stands out and I am sure the doc will be over the moon. Hope Grandma is feeling better too.

    Thanks guys,
    the pen was very well recieved,
    And as far as my G'ma goes she is a tough ol thing at 88yrs young and has just fought through I think 4 or 5 surgerys and as she told me on the phone the other day it will take more than that to stop her, I just hope I have half of her toughness & grit when I get on a little later in life.
    Cheers Ben
