    Default Christmas Present Time

    Figured I would make enough pens for each of my staff and one for my boss. Mainly CSUSA "European" style pens in titanium plate with three of the BT-401 "Mont Blanc" style 24k plate - despite the name they are exactly the same kit...

    A mixture of woods - sheoak, oak burl, dymondwood, and a heap I don't know plus one acrylic. All the wood is finished to 1,200 grit and three coats of shellawax glow, the acrylic is to 12,000 micromesh and a hit of auto polish

    Hmm, actually not exactly the same, the pens 5 6 and 7 from left to right are the BT-401s, you will notice the centre band is slightly shorter than the other pens. Except for that they all use the same bushings.

    One of the joys of giving hehe! 12 pens all the same ,yet all different such variety keeps the interest going, The discovery of what lurks beneath the outer covering when you get to the heart of things, well done ,some happy people on the other end of those ! cheers
