This pen I had many issues with! It started out great with the top cap barrel. The pen barrel blew up on me when I started turning it. I just set it aside to figure out what I was going to do with it. (this pen took me 2 months to finally get finished)I didn't have any more of the rosewood with the lighter color in the center band area to make another blank so I kinda come up with this idea.
I took some of the left over blank material and added some wildhorse jasper tru-stone to the ends. The redish browns in the tru-stone I think work quit well with the 2 rosewoods.
I used 20 coats of CA finish with the standard sanding and polishing techniques then buffing with carnauba wax.
The rosewoods are Brazilian, and East Indian.
Please give me your thoughts on this combination. I really think its a very interesting pen but then part of me says boy would anyone buy this. Its definitely a unique one of a kind.
