Snakewood Wall Street II Click

I didn't know that Snakewood could have 'eyes'. Is that what you call that swirl? This wasn't visible from the outside of the blanks, so I was very pleased when it showed up.

EDIT: Thought I should show the other side of the pen.

I made a European Style pen using Snakewood back in 2005 and after finishing it I put it in my case along with other pens that I had made. Just recently in January of 2008 I happen to pull the pen out and I found several cracks in the wood. I know that the wood was dry before turning it. I have heard from others that Snakewood is unstable and that this is a common thing. Does anyone know of a way to prevent this from happening?

Thanks for all the positive comments guys!

I think I am going to make this my new carry pen. At least until I get some better kits that I can use this snakewood on.
