So I may have had a bit of a stash of Siroccos here... I have some Mistrals and Tempests on the way as well but needed some examples of some of my blanks so I turned these the other day. I'm not a huge fan of black plating on my own pens but I think the color combos work on these.
A special mention for Phil at Beaufort Ink. I had a dodgy pen mechanism and asked Phil if he had a spare. Without hesitation he sent one out and it arrived the next day, no charge. Thanks Phil.

I really, really enjoyed making this one.
I finally had a chance to make a day to day pen for myself :)
The colours shimmer beautiful when the pen is moved, really dancing in the light.

I recently made a pencil from an Axminster gunmetal pencil kit (200354) all went well until a day later I tried to use the eraser and when pulling the cap off the entire cartridge came apart. I filled in a return request online and got a full replacement set the next day, great service from Axi...
