New pens

Couple of pens I made Sunday afternoon. Yellow poplar burl and an oak dyed with spirit dyes.

Sam, nice pens, I've never seen poplar look so good! []

Good job. Prefer the oak one myself. Dye job came out beautifully and the accent lines have good proportion.

Nice Sam. That's a pretty piece of poplar.

Love the shape and finish of the top pen and the color of the poplar is outstanding. Both pens look great.

Doug,
I don't think it is red or white. Florida has something like 19 species of oak. This one was from a branch that I picked up in the parking lot at work. Probably is a water oak or laurel oak, they are in abundance in town.

I like the poplar burl, but both are nice.

Great job
