Dario,
I couldn't help but notice as these were uploaded -- gorgeous.
I've got to get me some Honduras Rosewood burl. It's spectacular looking.
Congrats on the sales -- you've surely made some writers very happy.

Gary,

Thanks. Only one writer, a customer got all of them. He said a couple will be for gifts and one will be his but now he said it wll be tough to give away any of them. He said he might end up keeping the 2 burls LOL.

Those are some fine looking pens Dario. I ordered 20 of those kits about six months ago and have yet to make one.

John,

No my site has not been updated for almost a year [:I]. I haven't added any picture there actually but I should and probably will since I have some free time now.

Just when I think I'm getting better at finishes, I see something like this and and humbled. Nice to have something to aspire to. Beautiful work.

Well, the operation was put on hold my friend,

The day before it was scheduled it got interesting during some pre op testing. Seems they discovered a heart problem that would put me at risk under sedation. I am now in line for a series of more heart tests including an angiogram, the hip is on Hold...Thanks for asking..I'm out in the shop making some pens now waiting for things to get back on track

Dario,
I can't believe that these words are coming from a Koa nut like me, but I like the rosewood burl best. The others are also fabulous, but that rosewood burl is amazing. Amboyna has nothing over that piece and you turned them and finished them all spectacularly. I'm going to have to give finishing more attention.
Rob
