Cigar Longwood
Double Twist Ballpoint dressed up with a nice piece of Figured Maple.
Glued in Cap tube and turned between centers.
Machined off the Twist Holder flange and put together the Nib Assembly.
Twisting the nib clock-wise or counter clock-wise retracts the refill tip.
Unscrew the nib counter clock-wise or pull out the nib assembly to access the refill.
Sanded barrel to 400x, buffed with Super Fine Steel Wool and applied 6 coats of MINWAX Clear Gloss Polyurethane.
No polishing or buffing required using the MINWAX Poly.

Les
Strange expression maybe but that timber has a cute grain, simple design that appeals to me in every way.
Fit to place in the collection mate. The gold kit enfolds the timber holds the subtle look to spear it into contention.
Kind regards Peter.
