At a show in March I had a customer that bought a couple of Emperors from me and ordered a Emperor Gator Jaw bone pen , thanks to Robert Snowdon our official gator man I received a few gator blanks big enough.
This is the first one that I'll send the customer a photo of, I'm in the middle of making one with the jaw teeth sockets filled with gold. All comments good,bad or Roy have you lost your mind:eek: accepted.

Roy have you lost your mind???

Those Gator jaw bones are highly toxic, send them to me for proper dissposal. Also any completed pens must bewrapped for your protection ans placed in a nice package to acompany the blanks. Time is running out! Hurry Roy dont even think about this.:biggrin::wink:

Great looking Emperor, You da man.....:wink:

Looks great Roy! Can't wait to see the one with the teeth sockets.
I heard there were twisters on the ground north of the City today. Hope you survived the hail last Sunday too. It looked brutal. I'm not sure how anyone or any animal would survive what I saw.....

Cheers!

Joe we were driving home from a show Sunday and listening on the radio about softball sized hail in OKC and Shawnee and were more worried about Tony our late life child Corgi than the house....We were spared no hail only RAIN and lots of RAIN, did I tell you it RAINED!!!! :mad:

Roy,
That is one sweet looking pen. I like the way you improvised with the gold filling, I'm sure your customer is going to be more than happy with it.

While you are sendinging Lupe the pens and jaw bones and all, go ahead and pack up all your lathe(s), tools, saws, and all and send them to me. We cant have someone who has "lost their mind" with toys left to play with LOL.

That is an awesome job on that pen. Who knew you could turn jaw bone?

Every gator pen is original.There is no two alike.You can not make two the same even if you want to.Roy does exceptional work on all his pens the gator is just as stunning.

Looks great hey lots of gators running or slithering around here. There especially ornery this time of year. You always hear of someone getting chewed up by one in the news this time of year. It that's frisky time love is in the air and gator love hurts:eek:
