Guinea Fowl & Honduras Rosewood (1st attempt at PR)!

[philb]

Hi,

Well the this is my first go at turning anything non-wooden! Its a Guinea Fowl dyed Yellow spots from JohnU as part of the the Bash-It-Ob-Box swap thingy! So thanks to him, as I'd probably never have tried a PR as soon! Also havent seen anyone showing off his Guinea Blanks and thought I'd show one off for him!!

Second, is a Honduras Rosewood Burr form WolfDancer, on Black and Gold Ti. Stunning wood, not many eyes, but great figure that goes with and across the grain! Will definitely be trying some more of this!


Cheers PHIL

Well after Mark Liggets complaints, I re-shot them!!! HAHA

What kind of kits are these and where can you get them for a decent price?

Looks Great Phil! It appears you had no problems at all with PR. Nice pens.

 

[Ligget]

Fantastic pens Phil, great pictures apart from seeing your ugly mug in the metalwork! LOL

Cheers John!

Helps the blank was well made I think!! Scariest part was milling the blank to size! Then jus sealed up the milled ends with some CA!

Thanks for the blanks again, off to do the pheasant feather one tomorrow!

Cheers Mark, noticed that after id taken them! Its the crummy light at the moment, normally use more of an angle, but had to shoot right on top of them as the light was so dim, even at middday!

Those are the Diplomats if I'm not mistaken. You can get them from Ed with the Private Reserve 9000 refill for what most places charge just for the kit! He's got a good deal. Here's one of the kits: http://www.exoticblanks.com/index.p...ategory_id=30&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=60

Have a good one!
