Brown River cork pen blanks
~.75" x ~.75" x ~6"
2 blanks for $10
Shipping = $7. Lower 48 ONLY
Cork is a wonderful material for pen grips. It feels great in the hand
Cork like this is often referred to, generically, as "burl". It's not burl. It is, however, a composite cork formulated to produce a "river" effect, that looks like burl.
Stable in use, provided sharp tools are used, including drill bits. Drilling will sometimes produce a hole that fits extremely close to the tube. Tight fit. Using the tube as a reamer can help. When turning, leave the work piece prouder than you might with wood or plastics before sanding.
