This may well be my favourite pen yet. It's a lovely piece of burl yew on a gold Jr Gent kit. I was so impressed that I took about a Gb of photos...!

(Click for enlargements!)



You can see where there was a little hole in a particularly burly bit. I filled it with a paste of yew shavings, brass dust and CA glue. Came up really nice.

I was a little annoyed that I didn't have enough yew left over to replace the nipple in the end cap, like I did elsewhere...



Even took a few photos of the parts. I'm always amazed by how little actual wood is left after turning!!



Oh, I got a new camera for Christmas. Can you tell?
