Today got started on some pens (26 to be exact) to give to my employee's and their wives when I retire for all their hard work and sticking with me thru thick and thin times. There is no better bunch than these people. I have worked with them or have been their Supervisor from the newest ones of 4 yrs to the oldest for 26 yrs.
Anyway here are 4 of them that I got done this afternoon. They are Wallstreet II Click pens. I just nipped the corners off the blanks with a roughing gouge and then it was a 1" oval skew to the finish. There was no sanding and just buffed lightly with tripoli, white diamond and Ren wax. From left to right is dark purple, cobalt blue, chocolate covered cherry and pink. That hot pink as the LOML calls it I cannot keep enough blanks around. I have sold probably 30 pens in the last 3 or 4 months and 22 of them were the pink. I just put in a order for 20 more of those blanks.
