    Three new pens!

    I scored some unusual blanks recently, and here are some pens from them. Your critiques are welcome. All are finished with CA, sanded too 600, and polished with auto polish compound on a fold of paper towel[ATTACH]IMG_0554_edited-1 (762 x 201).jpg

    The first two are of amboyna burl A most pleasing wood to work with. The third is of Zebrawood, end grain. It was a piece of 1x8" in the scrap bin at the club wood source, Most likely an end of board trimming. Again all comments are welcome.

    Great looking pens Bob. Really like that second one. Wood stands out.

    I was privileged to see these in person at our last club meeting and the photos do not do them justice! When you hold these pens to the light - they just seem to come alive! Beautiful work Bob!
