    Cool Art Deco

    Got a parcel from PSI late this afternoon,went down after tea to prepare a blank to try the Art deco kit tomorrow,but my impatience got to me and so I finished it off ,its gold T/I and black T/N rather heavy in the hand ,shares the same tube size and bushes as the Majestic Squire, an upmarket EB I would say best describes it Cheers ~ John



    Taken with flash so only ordinary re quality
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

    Great looking blank!
    Can't say the same for the kit, too gaudy (Ugly) for me.

    Got to agree, The kit does nothing for me, sorry John. For me it falls in the same category as the Diva and the Noveau. I would prefer a Dayacom EB or a Majestic squire anyday

    Excellent job on the turning though.

    I have to agree. Nice blank, well turned and finished but that kit is not for me.

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

    I think it would suit some folk. looks okay to me but a little over the top perhaps but good work there John.
    Reality is no background music.

    Never underestimate the value of Bling in the eyes of Woman, my day by day pen of laminated timber I could have sold fifty times it sure creates a lot of attention and your
    Art Deco will as well I predict, like you said it will find a home real quick.

    Regards Peter.

    I agree with all the comments above with regards to the pen kit
    I agree with john about coming up with new kits all the time. The problem that I see id that no matter where you seem to buy from wheather it be the US or from here in OZ so many of the kits look the same or vey very similar. I really would like to see something come out that is completley different. Time will tell to see if that ever happens.

    Cheers ian

    John, I could see that kit doing well, especially on say a blue blank, or a nice burl- still blingy but maybe more suited in colour, anyway, after all is said--that will be the first to sell!!!! Amos
