Slimlines - My third batch

[FredAcker]

These are from my 3rd batch of slimlines. I suck at photography but seem to have found that nack for turning Which I'd rather do anyway.

Redheart

Purpleheart Pen and Pencil

Purpleheart

Zebrawood - If ya look close you can see where the finish cracked on this one. Lesson learned.

Padauk

Bocote (it was an outside cut and ended up with 5 different tones to it)

Back of bocote

I think I did that right :{

Nice pens. The purple heart pen by itself looks like a nearly identical pen to the first purple heart pen I turned. Nice! I also really like how the bocote turned out (no pun intended).

I'd like to make a public correction. It's not quite as dead on as I remembered it. I haven't seen this one since I gave it to the missus:

I wasn't sure how adding shape to the bottom and top would look. I like it. Thanks Drstrangefart.

No sweat! Interesting note on that pen: Dad tried to speed up the color change in a microwave. Scorched the center of the blank about halfway up, causing the color transition. I doubt we could get the same result from that process in a thousand attempts.
