Fisherman Pen

[Brittleheart]

Those of you who read the UK Woodturning magazine will already have seen this one, it is the laser cut Fisherman Pen kit from Turner's Retreat that I tested in issue 214. I only posted it because I am playing about with my new camera.

The offcut of wych elm burr it is standing on could have been designed as a prop for displaying pens, it was given to me by a friend.

Comments and criticism welcome on either the pen or the photography.

I wish I could see more of the pen and less of the burl. Then I would like to slice the burl and see what is inside.

I think you are right John, the Blackwood tends to merge into the shadows a bit. As for the burl it is a very thin piece, I doubt you would even get a slimline from it.

Oh chop it all up and get someone to cast it into worthless wood blanks, not that its worthless. :biggrin::biggrin:
