First European

[dbriski]

Here is my first European pen.

Made from The Low Quality Amboyna Burl from Isaac.

I did split it a little on the drill press but it glued together nicely.

Finish is a little Danish oil and some Carnuba wax.

Thanks,
David

MMMMMmmmmm daaaaaanish.

Looks nice. I wonder if that crack would have looked a little better if you rubbed a little of the shavings into it with some glue. Still looks good, just throwing that out there.

Yea looks nice. I am thinking like Skye maybe some shavings would have help with the crack. But the first time you do a new kit is always the learning one. I always order more than 1 when doing a new style just so maybe the 2nd one covers up the mistakes of the first one LOL

Good job. The crack gives it character [)][].
