Pens
ok i did 5 more pens today. these are for gifts for the men coming to our fall party next month. these are majestic squire, my favorite. i think it's just a very elegant pen. there is a swarovrski crystal on the clip. the finish on the kit is gunmetal, also my favorite finish in a pen. the finish on the wood is 6 coats of gloss lacquer wet sanded with micro mesh. im not a CA glue fan at all. i keep that for "gluing" things !
pen #1 is koa. the pics arent the best but the best i can do with a phone camera.
pen #2 is ?
pen #3 is amboyna burl
pen #4 is cocobolo
pen #5 is red malee burl

Nice looking pens...the amboyna burl is my pick of the bunch.
I vote the Koa pen. Well done.

Glad you are making some for the lady's, Otherwise it wouldn't end well for you 💀
I'm a fan of the koa, but the amboyna makes for a fine pattern on lighter wood.
Really nice gifts, hope you also feed everyone!

Gotta admit, they're more befitting the curves (bulge).
Call me sexist, but I tend to reserve these type of single blank (usually Elegant beauty and such) for the ladies and the cigars for the big fisted blokes.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
splint-are you kidding, forget the ladies !!!! it would not go well !
james-oh yeah ill be doing a few pork loins that night.
tony-thanks bud. yeah i wouldn't turn any down. trust me they look even better in person.
duckie-i just dont care for a pen that is a tube ! i want some shape to the body, just like the ladies ! and cigar pens are just way too big for most people.
