Narra Burl Jr Gent

[Dan Masshardt]

Received a small chunk of wood from woodwizzard. He believes this is Narra burl.

Whatever it is, I sure like it.

Nice work...nice wood...nice components.

BTW, I believe the burl of the Narra tree is called Amboyna. One tree, two names!

.....can you say, BEAUTIFUL? Well don Dan.

I'm doing more research on the complexities but yes. There are actually many different trees in Asia in the broad family using these names.

This pen doesn't look to me like the typical ambonya we see, but it's all in the family. .

Well done Dan, you seem to be getting your hands on a number of good burls!

Thanks. I've been looking for some different stuff. And turning a few that I've had around for awhile.

Very nice. I like all sorts of pens, but a great looking burl on a nice simple pen kit is hard to beat.
