This is another piece that Cody gave me. I used a Gatsby Click pen kit. The finish is thin ca. Boodrow

You're getting pretty good at this stuff, Boodrow. That's a beautiful pen and a nice kit, too.

Cody beat me to it - dang Boodrow you are kicking out pens like crazy now! Seriously - the finish looks really, really great. The Walnut root is neat - I like the variations in it a lot. The kit goes really well with the blank - but I'm not a huge fan of gold. Having said that - I do force myself to make some things in gold just because sometimes customers have no taste and prefer the gold kits Zac

You 'bout got that turning down, Boodrow. I'm one of those that have no taste, as Zac says. I like the gold.

Kyle - I have never been a big fan of gold or brass hardware - I prefer silver or chrome, etc... To each his own! Zac

Nice pen Boodrow! I really like the Gatsby click pen kit.
I'm like Zac that I prefer other kits than gold, but most folks do like gold, so there is probably something wrong with me and Zac ;D

Thanks Guys , I too like other than gold. The lady at work told me I needed to go with gold that it matched a lot better? She is generally rite , so I used gold. ;D Boodrow

Very nicely done Boodrow! Fit and finish look great along with a good choice of plating the complement the Walnut Root.
