    Box Elder Burl Gentlemen's Roller Ball

    I know what you're thinking.. are pens all I do anymore? These days yes, but that's just because I'm hooked. It's not the "long term plan".

    Here's my first screw-cap. It's a Gent's with box elder burl. Thanks for looking.

    Patrick that is a really nice one. No need to explain why you want to make beauties like you have been posting.
    Thanks,

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    Thanks, I was hoping the BEB would be a bit darker, but I still like it. This is a stabilized blank from CUSA. It's the first I've tried, and they sure are nice! I still put a CA finish on it, but was able to skip the slurry-sealing step.
