My first pen on the metal lathe. I decided to use low carbon steel for a truly rustic look. It should age over time.
This was a PKFP4010 Gun Metal Vertex Click Pen kit that i picked up at Rockler in Frisco I used an 11/32 drill for the body but it was just a hair too large. I managed to wedge some metal shavings between the body and the end caps for a perfectly tight press fit.
