    Excellent match of blank & kit.

    Well done, Sam! You know that's one of my favorite kits and you've done a fine job with it. I love the finish you've achieved with the WOP. Keep up the fine work.
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

    I always seem to enjoy the pen process that little bit more when there is a known purpose in the work, rather than just doing stock for an unknown as yet purpose ,eg making pens or such without knowing where its going to end up seems slightly impersonal ,whereas doing an order or a gift adds to the overall experience while going through the process, may be just me though hehe! Your work amongst others is my benchmark cheers !
