Thanks all of you for your comments really apreciated, mess up a Brazilian rose wood last Sunday ( sorry Lou ) but will " fix it " like my children say.

Don Osage Orange is a breeze to turn and love it is a nice grain, at first when I turn the pen I was worries thinking it the same as Mulberry, but not, the first cut of skew prove me wrong .

I like the 6th one. It reminds me of set of waves rolling out after a raindrop lands in a still pond. I also like your custom CB work.

 

[dougle40]

[Gary Max]

Great pens. Like most of them but I have a question about the Banksia pod. Does it look better in person and sell well? The more I see that material in pens the less I like it. Something about it seems rough and unfinished.

I have seen it used in other turnings and it looked good just not in pens. Maybe it's just one of those "my opinion" things or else there's an attraction in the material I'm not seeing.
