that is making the most of what you have. I looked at some scrap ivory and was wondering the best way to turn it into something. This gives a good idea. That or casting it all in in resin.
Looks great

Thank you. By the way, it takes two days to make blanks from scrap.

I'll bet it does....! That's a lot of careful, custom fitting. What is the dark coloured veneer you're using between the fossilized tusk segments? The contrast is perfect.
I can only imagine how scary, drilling this blank was....

It was unknown dyed veneer, probably wenge imitation 0,5mm thick.
I have dyed it with black spirit wood stain.
I think, on small pen thinner spacers needed. Or, maybe just colored glue.
You are right, it was very scary to drill and turn it. But Titebond Glue shows youself very strong.

Do that pen can get to "featured photo" on title?
