| The Corker. Copper and cork. The cork had been stored a few years in Chianti, Maldec and Cabernet Sauvignon bottles before I liberated it |
The Corker open. Center coupling from El Grande. The clip is from a cigar kit. The cork is 'raw', no finish, the copper is not protected and will tarnish but will easily restore with a silver polishing cloth |
A segmented blank made from a blank woodturningz sells - I just added one rip and flip to make the 4-fold symmetry. The blank is walnut and maple and made rather exactly so the flipping worked with perfect lineup in the corners. |
Wood grip section and wood clip. Pen is based on the Gentleman. Afzelia burl with maple clip. The pen weighs 33g - about the same as a std El Grande! The cap is 13g. |
