I have successfully made 7 pens with my Lathe and pen making setup. I have also been able to lose about 3 or 4 of them so I guess I need to get out and make a few more. I am just kidding I think they are in the drawer.
For my sixth and seventh pens I have upgraded to Cocobolo for the wood. This is a great deep dark rich wood. Cocobolo is very dense and has an almost oily feeling to it when it is being turned. I don't know if this makes sence but the wood cleanup really well with the skew and is almost finished without sanding.
