    Default Zebrano Streamline

    Zebrano in gun metal streamline.

    Straight grain Zebrano is so much more easier to turn than X-cut.

    Blanks turned then sanded down to 400 grit. 20 thin coats of CA then buffed with micro mesh to 12,000. Final buff with Brass and protected with automotive wax.

    I like the look of this pen.

    As always, comments or suggestions is always appreciated.

    Very nice combination of kit and timber. I think the slimlines/streamlines lend themselves to some great creative ideas. I bought a piece of Zebrano at the show the other weekend and have yet to make something with it.
    Reality is no background music.

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

    That is a great looking Streamline!
    Choice of plating really complements the timber.
    Excellent fit and finish.
    Well done.
