Was tiding up the shed and came across blanks for slimline pens all glued up and squared. Set in Oak and the other in Brown Ivory and had a gold and Gunmetal kit.
As we have a new Minister in our church decided to make 2 pens for him and his wife. Both with Celtic bands, didn't think a gold Cross would look right on a Gunmetal Kit.

Any thoughts???

They are very nice mate, yes gold and gunmetal don't mix too well on a slim, but cracking job on those two.... :thumbs: :thumbs:

On the other query think I will have to contact Axminster as I got it working again. But came off again when I was putting on the Carbuna wax and finishing off...
