Trustone and Aluminum

[Mark James]

Another from the other side of the pond. This is Tru Stone and Aluminum (or Aluminium) depending or you choice of beverage temperatures. :pint:

Constructing the blank was interesting... Drilling the tube hole was very interesting... And the turning was :pray: "successful."

The theme was for a stained glass window.

Comments, critique and daily beatings will be tolerated!

There is a curve to the finished pen. And it is slightly undercut towards the nib. This was more of a test to see "If I can drill and turn it," so I was happy when it was done.

Excellent Mark, very well done.

Very interesting job there, with a very high skill level.....I have found 'trustone' and 'Yunstone' to be very unforgiving, I have turned and polished it OK but generally crack it on assembly or shortly after....
Again...well done
