I wanted to add a couple of no thrills pens to my website for those who didn't want to spend a huge amount of money buying a pen as a gift for someone, so needless to say I opted for some sierra kits. Here's a couple I made recently :)

Break through in the Sierras I will have a look on your web site in a while for more pics etc . Did you use your new polishing method on them?

Thanks chaps.

No Peter, just sand paper and micromesh. Need to perfect the process first before submerging pens in that tank!

Mark, I made the spiralling pattern by using half a knurling tool. take one wheel off and rather than getting a diamond pattern cut, you get this
