Walnut burl from a playground...

[Phillip Kelley]

Walnut, from a tree, in a school playground, in southeast Arkansas. Dead limbs were falling from an old/dying tree and I was able to save/repurpose it for other uses!

Maybe zoom in a little? The pen looks great but it's hard to see!

Great job. You never know what or where you might find pen material. I guess that's what makes pen turning addictive, I mean fun. Ha Ha.

Exposure....lt vs dk

I only have an el-cheapo camera but I did experiment with a "light" setting I found on it today, that I did not know it had! I will try another shot at it after lunch...:biggrin:

Great save of the wood, it came out beautiful. It has pretty grain patterns and colors. Great job!

Very nice! The best wood is free wood, imo.
