A Little Shop Time Today

[Whaler]

I received an order for 4 chrome Atrax RBs wrapped in Domestic wood of my choice.
Turned out #1 today wrapped in some Pacific Yew that was harvested about 20 miles from my shop. I love working with Yew.

Great looking pen there Dick .

You are lucky to have yew growing where you live. It seems to all be out on the west coast from where I am but a fella sent me some years ago and I still have a little left.

Great pen. The wood choice is a good one. I really like the small knots. It adds character.

Great looking pen. Looks like I need to add Pacific Yew to the list of woods that I want to turn.

It is amazing how good an oak/pine/yew/ cedar pen can look but I think that is the nicest I have seen of the non exotic wood pens. I think it looks nicer then alot of exotics.

Very nice. Russ Fairfield turned a lot of Pacific Yew in his instructional videos. I really like the look and feel, and it turns easily.
