I Finally was able to get back in the shop this morning after working some long hrs out of town, so here's a new Marksman Falcon wrapped with stabilized historic white oak.

Great looking pen. The stabilized oak works so well with the SS plating on the Falcon.

historic white oak.

Historic in what context?

 

[Tim K]

The tree is a White Oak that dates back to the Civil War and General Stonewall Jackson was known to take a knee there and Pray. So the tree is known as the General Stonewall Jackson " prayer tree". The tree is thought to be 300-350 yrs old and succumbed to disease and time in 2011.

Ed, I'm assuming you want a closer picture.. I'm not sure how close, but I'll give it a try..I'm still learning a lot about taking pictures of small objects, I'm sure yours would come out better...

That's outstanding! I don't think I've seen that kit before.

I love wood with a story!
