This wood is from Nolan-- Tasmanian Eucalyptus Burl--real nice to turn and takes a finish with very little work. My block has several inclusions which really gives the wood personality. Kit is a Baron Fountain pen.
Nolan it was the last pen of the day----I just done a quick finish with a homebrew that I mix up---one of those a little of this and a little of that kinda thing. You don't get the super high gloss hardshell finish but it looks good and feels great.
When I fall of the wagon and BUY wood---yup it's the good stuff---of course you folks ain't heard the funny---the Taz was a freebie that Noland tossed in---he sure knows how to make friends.
