    Default Salvaged

    I failed with my first attempt at at a captive ring but I managed a salvation job. Gold Longwood, with Honduras Rosewood.

    Nice one Undies but shouldn't the ring be below the clip?

    Yep, I've failed at several attempts at this. One day I will try again. Looks good though.
    Why is my work bench never tidy?

    For some reason I like it, the only thing I would do is lower the ring to the bottom of the clip ( not bellow) well done

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

    They are not as easy to make as it looks. I blew out my first two until I finally got it. I left the clip off so the ring could slide along the pen. If you leave the clip on, I agree with the others, the ring should be further down away from the clip. But a nice job.
