Coolibah Burl European

[jedgerton]

This is made from a blank that I got from Mark (youngturner). I liked it so much, I used one of my Rhodium European kits from Craft Supply. The finish is Shellawax friction polish and the photo is just a scan (still need to get that lightbox thing going).

All comments welcome (especially those that help me improve).

Very, very nice looking pen! The Rhodium European is the only Euro. that I make. I just like the weight and feel of it.

Love the look of the wood John and the finish looks great. One thing I would recommend is to try and make your lower barrell thicker at the top. You have a great shape coming off the nib but need to continue that up rather than cut back in. Just my opinion.

Jamie,

Thanks for your comment. I hadn't noticed that it narrowed but I think I agree with you, I'll try that next time.
