I had a specific finish in mind when I did this pen. It took some experimenting to get the finish I wanted. The actual finishing turned out to be pretty simple. This is also a new kit for me. I am testing various kits, I'm not up to the level if kitless yet. This is the Commander and I like that it is medium point and writes more smoothly than the other kits I have tried.

Are you turning aluminum on a wood working lathe with wood working tools?

I can see it now and you did a good job. I do not know if it is the picture but it looks like the center part is a little crooked.

I am an old man that collected fountain pens and mixed my own ink. Your pen looks nice and you should be proud.
