More pens for the Woodcraft Store display

[RHossack]

These are my first Fountain Pens I've made and I personally think they are too gaudy and big and detract from the wood.

Both have 4 coats of Med CA and 2 coats of Thick. I went through the grades of Tri-M-Ite and polished them and then used Brasso and Meguiar's
Gold Class Clear Coat Wax.

This one is a Woodcraft Cambridge Hybrid in Sterling Silver and Woodcraft Gold dressed in a piece of wood I'm becoming a big fan of, Mango.

This is a piece of the wood the pen came from. I did 4 coats of a new formula I'm playing with to highlight the spalting and ambrosia in light colored wood.

This one is a Woodcraft Cambridge Hybrid Woodcraft Gold and Sterling Silver with Ebony.

I was curious to see why this thread had no comments, and im glad i checked! very nice pens indeed. Well done

Im sure you must have posted it at a time when not too many members were online and they were missed before slipping off the page.

Nice pens! I'm a fan of working with Mango also. I actually have a Mango tree in my back yard and I save the prunings to use one day for different projects.

Good looking set of pens. Great job.

The Cambridge is a nice set of components with the exception of the dreaded black ring on the center band. The Timberbits version of the components fixes that issue but has it's own issue with a difficulty sometimes getting the threads to mate properly.
Of course you found the way to overcome the black centerband by using Ebony!
That pen is a winner! Congrats!

This is the first time I've seen Mango used on a pen, and I think it is beautiful. You did a great job on it.
