In this week’s pen turning video, I turn an Algonquin rollerball pen using Oak from a Jim Beam whisky barrel and with satin chrome hardware. I enjoyed turning this pen. For a while, I was mulling over how to shape it but things came together nicely as soon as I put the blanks on the lathe. I used Yorkshire Grit fine and microfine after sanding to 600 grit. The finish is Doctor’s Woodshop Pens Plus, a friction polish. I quite like how this pen turned out. This pen is one of a dozen for a project I’m working on for a buddy of mine – he’ll have these available through his clothing store.
