Hi All,
Another blast from the past that I started some 2 years ago and finished yesterday.
Rotur fountain and rollerball pens in a Satin Chrome finish, the wood is Ebony.

A nice pair of pens and I like them, but not sure if they look don't look a bit commercial.

I think I do remember you Don from UKAP where have you been?
Nice pens and to your design but I would like to see them one diameter, unsure about the shaping on these.

I will get the punches out and straighten out the shapes, they don't look very good.
I think Walter could use the picture on page 40 of his book to illustrate his
" beware of the beginners mistake of creating two fat barrels curving steeply towards the centre band and looking like nothing more than a sack tied in the middle"
Thanks for the comments.
