I've had this wood and pen laying around for a couple years. I think the Burl is brown mallee. Unfortuanately the pen kit has a flaw in the cap that I didn't notice until I took pictures. I suppose it's too late to do anything about it now. I don't even remember which vender I bought it from. Thanks for looking.
It's a Burl

Beautiful!!
Thanks for the coments.
It could be thuya but it didnft have that distinguished smell and was not oily. But, I also failed to label the blank. I'm no burl expert except I know it's a Burl. Thanks.

Hey Mike!
I've purchased the Nouveau Sceptre rollerball fro Exotic Blanks, I like its unusual lines. That's another fine looking pen!

You have turned a very nice pen. What grabs my appreciation is the excellent contrast of the burl eye groupings to the background wood. The eye-figure is highlighted in a super nice way. Beautiful finish to bring it all together! Well done.:good: :good:
