Made this pen for my sisters 40th, let me know what you think.

So it was her birthday and I made her this pen. It has a satin black section and a black bock #6 nib that i bought in (I am only just learning to make my own sections), and was given to her loaded with Diamine Onyx Black ink. She likes black, a lot.

Smart!

I have just been looking at your pen-making website and think you have not only a lot of talent and 'potential' (please excuse the term, i am positively amazed at how good your examples are considering only six months experience), but also you have a definite eye for style.

Thank you very much! :) Everyone has been saying i have 'found my talent' with this. I am looking to get my own lathe soon now too, i have been using a very old one at the moment which has a few things which don't work and/or need repairing on it. I think that will help when it comes to using a newer lathe.

Sir,
That is a sharp looking pen....if she does not want it....I'll take it :-). All kidding aside, keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing more of your creations!

Thank you very much. On a total separate note your location jumped out at me, Puget sound is near Seattle isn't it? I play a lot of a game called shadowrun which is based around that area as its prime setting. :)

Such a fantastic, understated design. Just brilliant.

The colour is called Black mother of pearl (https://www.beaufortink.co.uk/pen-blanks/kirinite-pearl-series-pen-blanks/kirinite-black-mother-of-pearl-pen-blank) it's a very nice material to work with. and yes 6 months ish, I started using a lathe 23 weeks ago for about 6 hours a week. Thank you :)

Cool, i might have to pick your brains next time i run a game based around that area if that is ok? Probably won't be for a while i don't have a lot of time these days.
