Crosscut too! Well done!!
Still think Red Oak is a 'forgotten favorite', it might not have the 'catchy name' like some of the burls out there, but it is a special wood with some really great qualities.
Now when the neighbor pulls out his pen, he can remember that day when the tree fell through his house
Scott (gasoline in the cut....sort of:biggrin B

Yep - I gave it to him today and he was really excited - put it in a gift box and he has been showing it to everybody!
Elegant is the word I use also.

I've got about 500 bf left from 1,000 bf of red oak in my shop. I lucked up on it 7-8 years ago. Haven't turned a single pen from it. That'll probably change after seeing your pen. It's gorgeous.

Thank you for the comments! This was my first oak but probably won't be my last!
