    Great work, except maybe for that E-Z grip one. The blank is nice, but the pen, I'm sorry, is just ugly.

    As for the red bean, the more I see of it, the more I'm kicking myself for passing up some I saw on Ebay. it looks great!

    I agree Russel with the EZ grip, that was the recommended shaping,and the rubber is hollow and squashy hehe, the stripy bit is a bit I gave you ,thought I better try it out ,I think I gave you some red bean as well hehe, it does turn nice and look good . Cheers ~ John.
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

    Not a fan of the EZ grip, but love the others. That Red Bean is really nice too
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.
