This is 'the' pen that took me three attempts as the blank kept blowing out. Thanks to Walter and DeWalt Extreme 2 drillbits, she's now ready for your viewing pleasure!
The original blank was the end result of this thread, and is composed of two 5mm cherry slices sandwiching an 8mm piece of unknown wood. The scalloping is done with birch ply, which creates a marmite-like effect. I probably won't do it again ... I'll post a step-by-step of the scalloping as soon as I've done it.
