Had a better day today just a few things went wrong made the first few pens them made the white N blue one gold J/G no bloody clip and it was the only one I had so I thought I will try and get a clip for it Oops dropped the bloody fing on the kitchen floor made a few more no problems right make up the serpent pen right on the last bit ping yes a bit flew of so sod it for today LOL But I must say Brodys blanks are a joy to turn and they take an excellent finish drilling I found best cutting the blank to long drill to the required depth dont exit and cut the excess of after and paint the tubes even if the blank looks as if it dont need it

THIS ONE IS MY FAVOURITE

It's such a shame about the broken one, it looks like a lovely blank. The first one is a superb blank one of the best I have seen. They all look good, but the white one and the first one are outstanding. Did the kit come with the clip?

Lovely Pens:thumbs:

That really annoys me and shows that there is no quality control, because they couldn't be bothered to at least check out what they are sending out which has already been paid for. Kick up a fuss with them.

I would still kick up a fuss with them, it's better that you have got a clip to complete the kit.
