ANOTHER piece of firewood

[Snowbeast]

Had to see what this piece of firewood would look like round and polished.

Crosscut a crotch section and got some really interesting looking blanks Almost look like burls.

Dressed in a blk Ti component set from Smitty's Pens. 8 coats of CA and MM to 12k.

Thanks to Wooden Affairs for the firewood!:biggrin:

Comments and critiques welcome.

Any idea what kind of wood we're enjoying?



Very nice fit-n-finish!

Not only a beautiful piece of wood . . . one really gorgeouos pen! Very nice work.
Is it from a fruit tree?

Thanks for the nice comments.

Just a simple piece of mesquite. And this is not the best looking piece I've cut from this batch.:biggrin:

Scot (Wooden Affairs) sold it to me from one of his firewood piles.

He's got plenty more.....

That's an awesome pen! Firewood through the eyes of a pen turner!
