Beautiful pen, nice work.

Nice! Nice!! I turned a couple of pens and used a satin gold finish kit. I was not impressed, but your pen looks great! The kit looks tremendous with the myrtle. Great job on the finish too.

Wow! I like the choice of satin gold with your mrytle burl. Good job, Bill.

Gorgeous pen! [:0]

Is the color right on though? This is the first myrtle that I've seen with such golden/bronze color. What specie of myrtle is it (Australian)?

 

[Penmonkey]

Very nice pen! It looks like a perfect finish.

Hey Bill,
Nice pen, nice finish and nice choice of plating on the pen parts. It goes nicely with the wood. I hope you still have it next time I get to visit so I can see it in person, but if it finds a new home you'll have to show me another. I think you are in a groove with your finishing process. Keep 'em coming.
Do a good turn daily!
