This is my first JR gent using part of a 50 p blank! Sorted the assembly instructions and here we are. I used a skew for the first time, and having not done pen in 6 months. I was pretty nervous. I stuffed the alignment up. C & c please. ( pics to follow damn iPhone)

I was really chuffed, these were in an off cut bin at home of wood rye, 50 p each, ( they said less for the smaller ones, at which point, I just said they were all big ) I tried a slimline and lost all definition, and realised I needed a bigger tube and depth to get the contrast.
