don't post it to DJ, you might not get it back, with me its guaranteed!:rolleyes:, mighty fine pen Sam, think you needed to use the "Macro" on the camera, the little flower symbol. Amos:)

I've always liked the Churchills... I think of 'em as a "Grandpa Pen" for some reason.

The Red Mallee's a good choice with the S/Silver and it looks like the Rustin's came up a treat. :)

Thanks gents.
Amos I was using the macro but I will have to use the tripod the medication they have me on gives me the shakes at times

I am happy with the first attempt at the Rustin's and will do some more practice

If you want to see the pen DJ you need to fly to Qld

Maybe we should change the name out here to "Grandpa pen", good idea Skew Marketing ploy:2tsup:

Very good looking pen Sam, Red Mallee seems to do well on pens. What is Rustin's does it do the same as CA?, but without the problems of CA.

Rustins is a 2 part clear plastic finish without the smell of CA. It comes from the UK so will be available there.

Nice one Sam :2tsup: I'd have to say the churchill is a very good looking kit and just about any species makes it better. Nice finish with the Rustins too; once you start using it you won't go back to anything else :D

Cheers,
Evan
