Thuya Burr fountain pen

[Chriscb]

Afternoon,
Thuya Burr lined and threaded with an acrylic from Lumber Jimstudios, sporting a #6 Bock (F) nib. A very slight step and fine barrel taper.

Its taken a while to find an acylic to compliment the burr but I think this is it.

Revised my approach to threading, and I think it's an improvemnt.

As ever, comments and critiques please.

Capped length: 150.1mm
Uncapped length: 141.84mm
Barrel diameter: 15.14 - 14.89 mm
Section length: 26.08mm
Section diameter at pinch: 10.4mm

Absolutely superb. Great job of that and some lovely figuring in that Burr.

That's a stunning piece of timber and an excellent job. I think that's a great match with the acrylic and worth the search. Personally I don't mind the shape and the slight step, it gives definition to either end.....
Very nicely turned and finished
