Thanks Tony ! I like the Vertex click it is soft and quiet in its action , and yes the Hairy oak is always distinctive :) It makes a nice pepper grinder as well hehe. I forgot to say the other timbers which are Black wattle ,hairy oak,bloodwood,Rib fruited malley, and colonial red gum :) The dice and atom are leftover laser cut pieces cast in acrylic ,and a threepence bent, set in polimer clay and cast in clear acrylic ,the other 2 are offcuts from previous pens and are commercial blanks ,today I hope to make a special pen for a customer see how I go ,cheers ~ John

The two slims are commercial blanks,as is the coffee bean blank, the dice and atom I cast using leftover bits from laser cut blanks, and also the threepence is one of my clear casts :)
Too many nice colorful blanks for me to make my own hehe ,I do use color when I cast worthless wood,pine cones ,coastal banksias,and "Punga" NZ Fernwood . Cheers ~ John

Nice looking group of pens John. I must get down to the shed to finish mine off for the next market. I haven't been near it for 2 weeks
