First time I have used the new Bosch Pillar drill to drill out the blanks. I have to say it was a lot easier than when I did it on the lathe, so I'm a happy camper now :-)
Now that's a good looking pen. It's a personal choice but I was taught to follow the nib angle through to about mid way of the blank then reduce to the clip end diameter to give a pleasing shape & as far as I can see you've done just that. Well done.
Just some info for you guys who haven't turned acrylics yet.
