2 Newest Pens

[jaywood1207]

I haven't turned a pen in a loooooong time but I think I remembered how. The first is a baron rollerball in titanium gold. The wood is cypress which came from Labatt's in London and was part of the open fermenters. The wood was removed from Labatt's around 25 yrs ago and this will be a retirement gift for an employee of Labatt's. The finish is CA. The second pen is a bullet pen with caribou antler on the top half. This was my first and probably last time turning antler. There is nothing wrong with antler but I just don't have any desire to turn it. This is a piece I had laying around and the opportunity presented itself to use it. I put a CA finish on the antler.
Thanks for looking.

I like the first pens, something about the light wood.

Thank you for the comments. The cartridge pen was very well received today.

I prefer doing antler pens over all others. My wife and daughter thinks the antler stink also. Great looking pens.
