Australia Day pens

[Dalecamino]

I received my package from Amos (wooden ink) here's what was inside . A beautiful case engraved with my name and , gold inlay . Inside were these two pens . A closed end fountain and a rollerball , both engraved with my name . The pens are made from Mallee Burl and , finished with Amos' favorite stuff called WOP . My photos fail to show the quality of Amos' work . Thank you Amos ! :biggrin:

Wow that is a beautiful set of pens! Amos does some great work. The WOP finish looks great. That is the second pen I have seen in the past week with a great
WOP finish. I may just have to give it a try.

Sorry Charles--I led you up the garden path- the finish is CA, it is Sam that does the most wonderful finishes with WOP----which is next on the list to learn-- so-- if I botch the pen with WOP - I will have to send it to you to fix!!!!!! Amos

Chuck those are some beauties, I've been spending a little time on the Australian Woodworking forum and have seen some beautiful work there, but these are absolutely fantastic, I just found out my exchange is on it's way to me. These Australian fellows don't mess around, they have some very talented turners and Amos is certainly one of them. Congratulations on owning such a beautiful set of Fine Writing Instruments.

Thank you Ken . And I must agree , these guys DO NOT mess around . It is always an honor to receive works of art from our Australian friends . And , can only hope for more swaps in the future . I'm not only proud to own pens from Fred , and now Amos but , am extremely proud to call them friends and , know that if I needed anything , I can count on them for their help (and vise versa) . THAT , is invaluable to me .
