Managed to get this done today, was going to do more hexagonal but decided to build a new jig in between doing this pen. Hopefully more of the outcomes of that another day.

This is the first Tempest I have done, very impressed with the fittings and feel of the finish of the parts.. Click feels nice as well.

Kit - Tempest gunmetal

Blank - Black Wattle (Acacia-negro) supplied by Mark [MENTION=74]wm460[/MENTION] a few years ago and finally getting around to using some of this nice wood.

Finish - CA.

Thanks again to Mark [MENTION=74]wm460[/MENTION] as I have also dug out the Ghost gum today that might just get done on a Vertex click with the new router jig....:thinks:
