    I may get around to it this weekend, still wrapping up some things. I had to do a little tweaking to make certain parts meet other parts, this took some time as well. Im pretty confident that at least one of them will be together soon! Being that there are two of them, the tweaking for one will have to be done for another.

    No worries man. Take all the time you need. You are doing this as a favour anyway. I think some traditional UK tobacco is in order !

    Ok blue, here is the first one, I wanted to go simple with it. It is American Black Walnut, black chrome parts, Snakes brass end tamp cap. The pics dont do it justice, it is a lot shinier in person, and the brass end is so shiny I can see myself in it! Let me know what you think!

    Archer that is trully beautiful. I am so excited just by looking at it! I like these sort of things so much. I never owned a proper pen. I've always used free plastic pens and golf tee tampers.

    That's it. A pipe smoker's pen.

    Maybe eventually, still trying to work out the logistics of making large quantities of the tamp ends or just reworking the pen ends somehow...Im sure Snake doesnt want to waste endless hours fabbing brass caps!

    If I wasn't busy with my own tampers,
    then I'd consider it!

    BTW, nice work, Archer!

    Blue, go ahead and send me your info so I can get a package started and figure shipping, that way when I find the time (sometime before the second coming) I will drop the second one and fire her off!
