    Default Snakeskin Copper & Chrome Sierra

    Here's one Gary knocked up yesterday, it's a grey snakeskin blank which has been sanded to 12000 using Micro Mesh, the blank itself is quite easy to turn and is in fact 10mm longer than the standard size Sierra tube, which makes the Sierra look more masculine, the blank can also be cut down to the regular size. The pen kit is a Dayacom Sierra in Copper and Chrome.
    Cheers Huon

    Very smart indeed The longer tubes do make a huge difference to the sierra line ,especially to the larger hands cheers ~ John

    how does the pen mechanism engage with the end if the tube is longer?
