First Photos

[turningnut]

This is my first attempt to upload a photo to the forum so here goes.

From Left to right. Jr Gent with Afzelia Burl, Atlas with same wood but stained with General Finishes Georgian Cherry. (I didn't like the color of the blank as I prefer darker, richer colors so I thought why not try to stain it.) Next is my second attempt at segments, Atlas with bloodwood and black laminate.

Let me know what you think. I have been turning pens for 2 months or $2,000.00, whichever comes first. (Yes the wife knows and we already had "The Talk".

Mike,
Bigger photos -- larger size doesn't have to mean too big to upload.
From this distance they look good, especially the burl and the segmentation.

You did a great job on the segmented one! And you picked a great kit finish to go with it- it's definitely my favorite!

Bigger photos would be better, can hardly see them from over here! lol [8D]
Pens look great though!
