Hi pen friends.
Another pen in maple that’s been dyed and stabilised (not by me, I buy the blanks like that).
Fully lined and tapered cap and barrel. I mention tapering because it adds a degree of complexity as you have to make the liner stepped in order to cater for the angle.
Clips can also be a challenge but I’ve got it all dialled down now. Of course it would be easier if I made my own clips with the gasket ring visible so I don’t need to rebate it inside the cap. Another skill I need to acquire, but not today.
Sterling silver and acrylic is used for the accents and the wood is finished in hard wax. When my customers buy these pens I make sure they know it’s more of a desk pen and, just like anything made from wood, can show evidence of wear if not looked after properly. Most people do get it.
Cheers
Ash
