Hi, Guys,

Here's a couple of Zetas I did earlier. Unfortunately the one on the left blew up on the lathe (did you hear the screams of anguish?). I glued the two halves together, hoping that the join wouldn't show, and carried on turning and finishing. I then assembled the kit, positioning the clip so as to cover one side of the repair, which worked OK, but decided not to sell it. Instead, it has joined a small pile of pens in the kitchen the wife uses for shopping lists, etc. Ouch!
Shame, because they both gleam like glass.[ATTACH]22204[/ATTACH]
