    Default NOT my finest but pleased !

    G'day Folks,

    I had a sudden brainwave at the weekend , I said to myself " He,y why not make a pen from aluminium rod"

    It was a "learning curve" with many "redesign opportunities" to say the least !
    However I am very pleased with it, although very aware of its many faults and I will be continuing to play with aluminium for a while !!

    Enjoy !

    Also made this little Elegant Beauty using Pepsi Max can for the aluminium highlights !!

    You did a great job on that aluminum using Sedona components.
    Looks great from here.
    Well done.

    That aluminum one is very nice. Wish my turning skills were that good.
