Bulbfiller for a pen swap

[Jimjam66]

I turned this as my second bulb filler, taking all of the learning from my first. This one I am REALLY pleased with - all of the little niggles from the prototype are ironed out. I also made a matching box from the same plank of walnut that I cut the blank from. Got a pleasant surprise as I turned down the blank - the walnut is rippled and looks simply stunning!

It's off to the US as part of a pen swap - my heart is sore but I guess I'm truly giving of my best.

David for me the glass is ever over half full you may just receive equal from your swappee lets know how it finishes up. In the mean time the incentive took you there confidence will take you further IMHO. Kindness incalculable.

KInd regards Peter.

David that is one very nice pen you are a very talented man turning out pens of a class that most of us could only dream of making I have a nice plastic one if ever you get the urge to swap again LOL

I would be extremely upset if I were doing a swop with that pen and got what you received in return. The person should be ashamed of himself.
