another sketch pencil

[paintspill]

i had an order for a sketch pencil for a co-worker to give to his son for his birthday. after it blew up on me twice a few weeks ago, i decided to give it a rest and today i started with a whole new kit. i think the other one was cursed some how.

its the artist sketch (or shop pencil) can't remember, either way its the one piece one, in maple burl. i wiped the finger prints off after taking this picture but this pic turned out the clearest so i used it,

cheers

Great looking piece of wood you used for this one. I think it turned out very nicely. How did you like turning that kit?

its a great kit to turn because there are so few parts. its a little tougher to drill because its one single piece, but it assembles very easily.
