Ebony Cigar pen

[Dvoigt]

This was my first time working with ebony. I thought for sure I messed it up. I let it get too hot when I was drilling it, and then I ended up redoing the CA finish 3 times before it came out right. So far so good, no cracking (knock on ebony).

Very nice. A perfect match for that kit. Only had to redo the finish 3 times? I still haven't gotten an ebony done that easy. :frown:

Looks like your efforts paid off! Nice looking pen.

You got a superb finish on that pen. Very nice looking pen!

All that additional work really paid off. Love the finish.

Now that is a beauty, great finish too, fingers crossed as I had an Ebony crack after a few months.

This turned out very nice; I have done ebony only one time .... never again (or at least for another year).

Very good the cigar lives on.

My drill bit smoked last time i used ebony, ironic because i to was making a cigar pen

Classy piece of work. Your patience paid off.

Wow looks excellent! I love that you gave it a little body, the profile of the pen looks amazing.

I had to make a segmented pen for a little pen turning competition out of ebony last year. I had to keep remaking the pen barrels until I got it just right. I got so sick of ebony, I haven't turned any since the competition. You did a much better job with it then I did.

Great job!
