Camatilo Rosewood

[splinter99]

This is a piece of Camitilo Rosewood that I bought from Tuba (Joel)
The sanding dust from this wood is the brightest purple and the depth of the grain is buautiful, If he has anymore I want it!
Plus it finishes with no problems..After I sanded and polished with MM I was real tempted not to put any finish on it. It polished to a higher gloss then the finish. I was a big fan of cocobolo but I like this better

Thanks for looking

Very nice! I love the way the grain just pops, and you've done a great job on fashioning it into a pen.

Yep, I agree with you. The wood is excellent to work with. Be very cary of breathing any of the dust as it is definitely a possible source of respiratory problems for you in the future. []

Very nice pen too!
