Here's a couple of Pens I started this weekend. Both "firsts' for me.

The first is a "home brew" resin I did. The second is my first "glue-up", Bloodwood and Olivewood. Connie says she's gonna post pics of all the blanks we cast as soon as we strip the last of em out of the molds

Mike, the yellow russet came out neat, it almost looks like wood. I like the angle cuts on the glue-up too; much more visually appealing than the straight cuts I did on my first one.

I really like the the Bloodwood / Olivewood. They both look great!

If that photo is for a website or other display, I would recommend changing the text to a lighter color (white) to show up against the background. I know you didn't ask about that, but just a suggestion.
