All,
Made the Buckey burl from my BOB's on the "I lost train" ride. I thought it came out nice. The celtic pen took a while to put the blank together but turned pretty well. Made from holly and ebony. Used pre-stain to help the holly keep from getting full of the ebony as I was sanding but didn't work completely. May try to stablize the holly next time or use another harder wood. I would like any comments you guys (girls) may have. Let me know what you think. Thanks Tony
