WW Agarita and Green Wormy Churchill
Made this about 9 months ago but never got to finish it(still isn't finished like I wanted-with custom centre band). Decided to put it together anyway and here it is. The Closed end ,Invisible clip Churchill is amongst the first I attempted. The kit came from Addictive some 18 months ago, the blank is either from Jeff Powell(workinforwood on IAP) or TurnTex woods, so if you recognize your blank please put your hand up.
Here it is for your comments and hopefully-enjoyment. Amos
The finish is CA

Simply amazing what a master can do with a relatively inexpensive kit.
When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

Great work on the closed end and clip installation Amos!
Well done.
Can't say I care for the blank color combination.

looks great Amos, i like the colors they really create a great contrast which means character
i have made a bunch of pens that i thought were UGLY, none of which i still have, they seem to be the ones that go first
