Celluloid Acrylic Sirocco

I was asked to make a pen for someone who has difficulty holding a Round bodied pe.
No suitable Acrylic blanks were available so made my own Octagonal Celluloid acrylic from Conway Stewart.

Very well done, not an easy job to do, but the results look great.
I have a Beal pen wizard that will produce flat's or twisted blanks, I need to use it to learn more, this is soooo tempting
