A fresh shed day
Well, after yesterdays disasters, today was a much nicer shed day. Managed to disassemble yesterdays train wrecks and breath new life into them. Even though I had run out of the GPW Black with Gold Dust Grooms pen blank, I substituted it for a Timberbits 'Blackend Gold' blank (looks more Brown & Gold to me) but acceptable.
A couple of Exec Sierra's for a customer request in Brown Malley Burl & Spalted Mango, and another customer order for a click bullet pen in Ancient Kauri Pine.
I never forget anything I remember !!

Well done Pariss,
Some nice pens there, although I really do like the burl and the spalted
Cheers
Tony.

Looking good Pariss
Got to ask but, although the finish looks great, the Sierras look well over sized
Was this deliberate?

Ha ha, I was waiting for someone to say just that !. No, they are perfect, just a weird camera / background angle.

Nice work
That spalted Mango looks superb
Neil
If it's any consolation, I had a closer look re sizing on the sierras as well - who said photos can't mislead!

Nick
