A blank I couldn't give away!

[Glass Scratcher]

This is a Woodcraft gold artists sketch pencil dressed in an early formulation of my Go Gators! blank. No one in my wood turning club would take the blank as a freebie and it went into a box of rejects, till I needed a birthday present for my nephew.

It has an slight hour-glass figure from the tip-end.

Sorry for the photo.

I like the small swirls in the blank, they look cool. Makes for a nice gift.

That is a very nice looking pencil. Got any more of them freebie reject blanks? That 'il teach them guys at the wood turning club.

Pure class Charles! The colors float on each other. Some people just cannot imagine the possibilities. It's their loss!! VERY nice job.:biggrin:

:bye:

Their loss is your gain . Beautiful job on that one .

Very cool I'm glad you posted that! One of the pens I'll be turning tomorrow is one of your Gator blanks. It's a Christmas gift for a friend in St. Augustine. After seeing how nice they turn out I know he'll be pleased.

Well, it is an....... interesting color combination, but at least you made the best with it!

Nice. You need to find a new woodturners club.

I'll bet that doesn't happen again. Good work.

You could probably sell a few of those now since they got the big win.

Heh, not really, but I'm not a sports fan in the least. If I can't do it, I don't really care to watch it.
