Nice lot, Ken. I tought I liked the curly Hickory cigar until I saw the beaded corn cob! And unstabilized at that! Nice![^]

Great set of pens! The corncob is excellent.

I got the corncobs from a friend in Illinois. The center is quite hard. It was fairly easy to do beads.

My favorite is the blue dyed curly hickory. Beautiful wood and great beads. I'm a little worried about Billy though... his favorite should have been the same as my choice- are you feeling OK Billy?

All look great. I really like the blue you got on the hickory. Mind sharing what you used?

Wow, beads on a corn cob. I'm impressed. Nice work on all of them.

Jason, I used Chestnut stain that I got from CSUSA. But it is no longer available in the states. CSUSA no longer carries it and it is made in England. []But I have some purple,2 blue and some green.
