I had the privilege of creating a pen using aircraft aluminum from a decommissioned C-5 Galaxy. The pen is for the commander of the maintenance squadron that oversaw the process, and he retired this week as a Lt Col after 28 years.

​

Probably the most technically challenging pen I've turned, since I have no experience with any metal working. I ended up pre-drilling the aluminum and wood, before using epoxy to affix it to the barrel.

I started with the Sorfin SC28 and a Wurkkos TD04 (not pictured) and just got the Wuben X4 and G5 in the mail today. Super stoked, and constantly learning about all the different jargon and specs. Looking forward to learning and collecting more!
