Bias cut

[Checked]

Here it goes for a Newbie. This isn't easy learning to turn pens and then taking a picture of it. Been watching all of this for awhile and had to try it.
Thanks

I love that! What kind of wood & kit?

 

[pastorbill1952]

Great looking pen. The wood is beautiful. For a newbie you did great work. And even took a great picture.[]

That looks WILD!!!

Nice bias zebra. Great rings.

 

[WoodChucker]

Good looking pen and thanks for sharing!

Well done and welcome to the IAP!

Don't take it wrong, just my opinion. I would like the grain orientation to be in the same direction on both halves. But that is just me.

Came out great! Good job.

Wow. I like the way the strips are in the pic. It brings them out more and they really get noticed. You just need to carve a tiger's head on the end. []

Welcome to the group.

I think its cool to have the grain mirror image....

Nice looking pen Rex. Welcome to the IAP. I like the way the stripes run toward each other, draws your eyes to the middle.

IS that angle-cut Zebra or bocote? Either way, it's a great pen. And welcome to the group!

 

[Checked]

Thanks for the welcome.
I am one of those flatwood guys that have begun to enjoy this.
Sorry for no wood idenification.
That is Bocote cut on a 30 degree bias.

Great job for a first or 100th pen. I like the Bias you put on it. Very nice pen.

Nice work!!

Is it just me or does that pen "look" like it's bent at the centerband??? [?][][][?]

 

[PenWorks]

Rex, pretty nice for your first go around! Pen & photo
Welcome to IAP.
Randy, It's either to late or to early, go to bed & look at it tomarrow.
Looks straight to me.

 

[Gregory Huey]

Very nice job with the bias and a great looking pen all though it's a little fat for my taste.

 

[TomC]

Cool pen, I'd like to try one of these when I get some more blanks.
