Not much really, but I've finally been able to make a pen blank in me pressure pot!! I've made blanks before but they lacked consistency. Not any more.
I call it the tiger blank, and shall hopefully be turning it in a bit:thumbs:

Looks like you used a ribbon type method looks good.

Certainly did mate, cut a few test ribbons of different thicknesses as a test. All I've got to do now is not blow the bugger up. I've got another four of these but I don't really want to go through them all for one pen if I can help it :funny::funny:

It's always hard to imagine what it will be like when turned, but I think I know what that will be that, it's going to be great, I'm sure:thumbs:
