Title: My first attempt

Well, I can no longer say that I have never turned a pen.  I have thought about this for some time and finally decided that it was time.  After all, I needed some practice so that I can do a better job on the two that I plan to make for the son-in-laws for Christmas (next weekend).

This is really not as bad to make as I expected, but did take some work to get it the way I wanted.  It is a Black Titanium Sierra Button Click Ballpoint Pen with a stabilized Amboyna Burl barrel.  With $24 in parts I probably won't be making many of these.  That is unless I would try to sell them at a pen show where they sell for $75 and up.  Personally, I think it would be great pen to use to record coyote kills, fish catches, etc.    :laugh2:

Thanks for looking,

Jerry
