I entered this pen into a contest just recently. I found out this morning that I won the category I entered into ( Real Ammo - full barrel ) 2014 Shellcase Pen Challenge - International Association of Penturners

I have been using my spare time lately to build a bench for my new lathe. It has been a while since I posted any photos, so I will post a few of my new bench. This lathe came with a 1/2 hp motor, I have removed it and I have replaced it with a 1 hp 3 phase motor, which I am going to power with...

And a Rollerball out of the same batch.
