Another Statesman (second)

[Dangermouse]

Just finished (finally) the matching fountain pen for the rollerball I made last week.

Minor drama with the cap due to a bit too many wheaties during polishing. (many thanks again to Brett for steering me back on course after my big girlie panic attack :2tsup:).

Finished with rustins, buffed with the rustin's polishing goop followed by Meguiars plastix polish (really puts on one hell of a shine :cool:).

Very shiny - pen body nicely reflected in the cap:

Wow Dave looking good mate you have done a fantastic job there. I am glad to see you worked out the Rustins you have also done an exceptional job on the finish, that is the sort of finish a classy pen like that should have.

Well Done :2tsup: :2tsup:
