More of my Beginner pens

[Scissortail Pens]

I bought a large box of blanks from Woodcraft and a load of the funline pen kits from PSI and have been going a little nuts with it. :biggrin:
While I'm not sure what all of the wood is, I'm pretty sure two of them are Birdseye Maple. Not so sure about the rest. :redface:

By all means C&C most welcomed.

They look nice from what I can see. I'm sorry I can't offer any meaningful criticism due to the rather blurry pictures. Keep up the practice.

Regards,
Michael

Thanks Michael, The camera that I have is a quite old point and shoot camera, add to that, that I don't take many pictures as it is and well, my pictures do leave a lot to be desired. Hopefully I can remedy the camera part of that here shortly. The other part, I'm not so sure about...hehe

It looks like your off to a great start. Keep trying new things, don't just make pens, be creative.

I'm gonna guess .... left to right ...

maple, osage orange, maple, padouk, honduran or burmese rosewood

Thanks Dave,

I certainly hope to try new items. I'm still new to turning on a lathe and have tons and tons to learn. It's certainly fun to poke a fast spinning piece of wood with sharp pointy metal things. :biggrin:

Thanks Greg,

I was almost 100 percent positive on the maple, but my wood ID skills are pretty non existent outside of normal carpentry woods and none of the blanks that I got from Woodcraft were marked. Not a big deal, as they're all going to get turned..
