Here is the finished set of eight fountain pens I was asked to make for a customer,complete with velvet presentation boxes.

Turned with a scraper (which has now gone out of the window for Woody's tool! :pray: ) then finished with friction polish and a layer of renaissance wax.

Nice job there, look well matched and finished, if the customer isn't happy with them it's time to get a better customer. :funny:

And can we please leave references to Woodys tool till after the watershed, I'm about to have my tea. :rolling:

So YOU'RE the lucky sod who got that tool! All I can say is lock it up tight if Terry ever comes to visit ...

Lovely pens and if they don't lead to more orders there's no justice in this world.

Liked them before appreciate them completed someone said life is like a box of chocolates when you put them in a box as you have it lifts them to new heights of delight, each one emphasises what nature intended but rarely displays covered in protective bark and mystery. My estimation is the recipient individuals will certainly be blown away, display them with pride taking your work far and wide. This will have a compound effect the secret of success for you Matt I trust mate.:thumbs:

Kind regards Peter.:claps:
