Here is the most recent "Cigar" pen that I finished. I used mesquite burl and dyed oak for the ash. I did the ash detail with my laser engraver. Would love to hear feedback.

Commissioned pen asked to match body color of a pen from a European maker. Tried several blanks and the Kirinite Turquiose Ice looked best.

Thanks to Dale Allen who made most of the pen I just helped finish it up at the mpgs. Thank you again for taking your time to do this I truly appreciate it and your demo was amazing as well as the hands on experience I learned that day...

Here are a couple of my most recent pens using mesquite burl. These are so fun to make.

This was my second attempt with a six ring. The first ended tragically with a sever case of CA glue disease. The pen was made from northern Indiana mystery wood with a Padauk knot. I was happy with my workmanship but not so happy with the pen. I saw this knot in the wood before I started and...

Six Cigars (these are my first of those): the first three kits were from WC and the other three from CSUSA. I used Shellawax on the Purple Heart and Padauk (four applications; as much heat build up as I can stand) but Wood Turner's Finish on the other four wood blanks. I think I like WTF...

No offense to those that like the .50 Caliber pen kits -- but I just do not like them. So, for the past couple years, I've been making my own. I buy once-fired, brass cartridges ... Barret .50 cal solid copper bullets ... and cigar pen kits. See on picasa They are well liked by the Air...

I like the Cigar but just can't stand the clip which looks rather cheap IMO - but the kit is cheap indeed. I was wondering if there is any way to replace it with something nicer which would look like the Jr Gent clip for instance, or something in between. I'm also having a closer look at other...

Hi guys, don't usually show my pens off but I'm a bit proud of these! My first shot at a Roman Harvest wedding set in Acrylic and a Cigar made from 40 year old Shiraz Vine from McLaren vale, South Australia (for you wine officianados). Please let me know what you think. Jus

Ok, so these are a couple of the first few pens ive turned. 5 and 6 of 10 so far. One is a black cigar, and bocote blank. I finished sanding to 12000, and finished with a high friction polish. I just cant seem to get the CA finish just right yet. The other is a Vertex click, and some sort of...

I decided to tackle something a little more challenging for a gift I wanted to make. This is my first attempt at a closed-end pen. Since this pen is going to an avid cigar fan, I felt a cigar theme was appropriate. The body of the pen is madrone burl. The ash simulation is buckeye burl. I did a...

Dark blue acrylic cigar with sparkling flakes. all comments are welcome!:rolleyes:

Hello, This is my current offering. Soap Stone on Black Titanium Cigar. Yes, real stone. :biggrin: Finished with PR. All comments are welcome.

I need a new camera! Osage Orange wasn't orange enough, so "dyed" it with a red sharpie. It was my first experiment with CA-BLO and the top tube turned out great, the bottom tube is splotchy; good experiment tho. White oak is just burnished with canning wax. Thanks for looking! I promise...

I made these today. They are both out of walnut. Big thanks to Peter for the La Gloria band. The CAO band was from last night. I am going to have to make quite a few more because my local cigar shop wants some. I converted the cigar box to a cigar pen box for presentation of the pens...

I was so impressed with his cigar pens I had to try it. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery! I'm a cigar lover so this was right up my alley. The first one I made was out of Red Mallee and buckeye burl. The second one is made out of Claro Walnut and buckeye burl. I used churchill...

I had some spare pieces of cocobolo I was trying to find something to do with so I came up with this. I made the frame with the spare pieces and then bought some beautiful cocobolo for the top. It is lined with Spanish cedar. It seals amazingly and holds the perfect 70% humidity for the...

I am not thrilled with this pen. Because I expected more. I got this teak board that is all curly... not heavy maple curl but a moderate yet distinct curl which is pretty uncommon in teak. To kick it up I decide to cut some on the bias. The wood had some dark streaks and other odd patches...

This is my first Diva Pen (went to my daughter). Of course I forgot to paint the tube, so lesson learned. MM to 12K and waxed. The second is a Cigar in Red Cedar (from Gary Max) CA - 2 coats Med. MM to 12K and waxed. I'm still working on my finishing. Thanks for looking.
