First actual closed end pen

[Citoyen]

Hi everyone,

I recently acquired a grabber mandrel (single size collet chuck) because I wanted to try a closed end pen.
Next up will be a double blind pen, maybe with a clip. Pen is a Beaufort Ink Mistral.
You comments or critique are welcome as always.
Best regards,
Tom

Jackpot Tom. Fulfilled winner from all angles and positions,the potential of the block the pen is sitting on is unlimited. History on this forum it is so outstanding a pen mate. Would like to know the ancestry of the timbers.

Congratulations,I have just emerged from a whole of life experience without pain where my eyesight was so clear including side to side vision. Exactly twelve hours of absolute pain free joy. Our cat had to be removed from squashing my lower legs about 9 pm last night.

Then to be rewaeded seing your pen and this marvellous block of heavenly timber underneath. Wow a hundred times.Thankyou my joy is complete.

Kind regards Peter. PS just finished three days without sleep in incredible pain from a pinched nerve.Like an out of body experience last night,full deep uninterupted sleep.
