Roy, that is one sweet looking pen. Would have never thought something as ugly as that tusk would turn out that good looking.

Beautiful, as always, Roy!
So did you finish with floss and Crest? Or did you opt for the Colgate and Oral B solution

Roy, That is one beautiful pen !!! You must have blown through the list of "honey do's". So where did you find the dental hygienist on Sunday to polish the pen ? :wink: Kidding aside, it's awesome. Thanks for sharing. Have a safe trip and a successful show! Regards, Doc

WOW Roy - I'm really very IMPRESSED Diane is one HECK of a trainer :wink::tongue:. Do you think she would let me borry you for a lil bit???????????????
All of those "honey do's" done and still time to turn a hunk of tusk into that BEAUTIFUL piece of ART!! :biggrin::biggrin:
I hope the show is fruitful and you come out way ahead of costs etc. Try to have a bit of fun while you are out there too. Remember to run away from anything that slithers and rattles.

Nice pen. I have some mammoth ivory glued up waiting for me to work up the nerve to turn it.
What does your shop smell like after turning that? After cutting and drilling the mammoth ivory, mine smelled like a dentists office that had just drilled one badly infected cavity.

LOL!!!! Cant wait.
Someone should've told Pumba to clean his teeth more often and maybe he wouldn't have ended up being part of a pen so soon:biggrin:

Roy,
I had this thought besides raving about your acheivement. Why not approach the owners and Directors of Hogs Breath enterprises could be a certain series of sales especially if you show them before and after as you have for us.
Sincere good wishes on your way.
Kind regards Peter.
