DI Burl Statesman

[Nolan]

Just a piece of DI burl that wasnt good enough to sell to you guys with a CA finish, so I made this right before my surgery. All comments welcome.

 

[Gary Max]

Dang----You nailed that one.
Hope you are having a good day

Really likin' it Nolan. Great chunk of wood and very nice execution on the pen. Your finish looks great and the photo is excellent as well. Nice job all around.

And just what was suppose to be wrong with that blank other than you liked it too well?[]

Great looking pen. Nice to have you around and active again. []

Beautiful pen; great burl.
Most importantly, here's hoping you're recovering nicely.

Really good to see you are back, Nolan, and I see what you mean about that piece not being good enough to sell to us. I congratulate you on overcoming embarassment enough to go ahead and use it yourself, then enduring the self-humiliation of posting the results here! You're a bad, bad boy! BTW, the pen is beautiful!!!!

 

[Nolan]

LOL really it came from my pile of seconds that I normally give away with orders. I pull blanks out like these that I feel have either not enough figure or a defect that would cause it to be un-sellable. I strive to only provide the best quality blanks of any givin burl I cut and sell. You know I could sell alot cheaper if I just sold every piece I cut. Like[]

Nolan,

I would gladly buy those seconds []

 

[DCBluesman]

I'll second that, Dario! Nolan - I hope things are going well, my friend.

 

[MikefrMd]

Very pretty pen....I hope I will be able to do so well in the future[]

 

[Radman]

Awesome pen Nolan. I never in my life seen such nice "seconds". Guess I'll have to buy more blanks from you to get one or two of those eh?

Very nice looking pen, as well as finish. Can't wait to turn the two I have. Glad to hear you are up and about.

Seconds!? Seconds!? how good are the Firsts?? If the workman ship of your surgeon is half as good as the workmanship on that pen you are in good hands,[][][][]Trust all goes well for you.Regards R2

Great looking pen, awesome looking seconds, and welcome back

 

[rherrell]

Nice pen Nolan. I like the idea of giving away seconds as freebies. Now I'll have to buy some firsts.WELCOME BACK!

 

[gwilki]

That one is drop dead gorgeous, Nolan. Any time you want to offer the seconds for sale, I'll be in for sure.

I hope your recovery is coming along well. Take care.

Salivating..................where is your DI coming from Nolan?

 

[UKpenmaker]

Stunning pen Nolan, that finish is top notch.
If those are your seconds, the wood you use for your fire will do me.[:0][}]

[CSue]

Like Dario and Lou, I'd like to get on your "seconds List." And it would be more fitting because I'm the <b>second</b> twin . . .


Beautiful "second" pen!
