Amboyna Burl in a Sterling Silver Baron

[Jacksbrat]

Had to try something new, and I had this nice peice of Amboyna Burl. So, Here is my first Polyurethane Finish (Thanks Les for the tutorial). I put it in a Sterling Silver Baron and topped it off with a matching finial.

Any comments would be great, + or -, Thanks

Thanks everyone for the comments. I know I have to work on the Camera and lighting. Dave, that photoshop looks awsome, you made it into a new pen. Thank You Very Much.

I like the pen, but I can't really see the finish. There needs to be a bit of reflection to do that. But if that was the finish you were looking for (instead of the super shiney ones) then you are spot on.

Very sharp looking pen.

I think it's a great pen, a shine line is not always a true mark of a finish,
