Pair of Buckeyes

[Gary Max]

Hey I have been busy --- fussing about the heat don't get the job done.
No-- I do not have AC in the shop---I get up in the middle of the night and work until it gets to hot.
Here's a pair of Buckeye Burl Barons.

Really nice pens, I am just learning but hopefully soon I will be able to make pens like that.

Nice work, Gary. I've been trying to decide on the next style to turn - Baron, Statesman or Gentleman (or their Jr. versions.) Does the Baron feel good to hold and use?

Nice Gary, very nice. Makes me want to get out in that 100 degree garage and make something. []

I'm not Gary, but I tend to prefer the Jr Gent. Although I really like making the Baron and find it an outstanding kit, my fingers do not like the faceted nib section.

Edit. Sorry, Gary, awesome pens!!

FWIW,

Tom---you just sneak out there at 2;00 am.
thewishman------I like the Baron----I only make a few different kits--- slimlines are my best sellers---Barons are my high end.
I wish I could afford to try some of the others but you can tie a bunch of money up real fast. It would be hard to market a kit unless you have several of them----in my opinion.

Great work Gary, I love Buckeye Burl.[]

Those are very nice buckeye burl blanks. They're very "swirly", which looks very calming somehow. And your finish just dazzles!

Guess I better get some Buckeye Burl, only have spalted Buckeye Burl. Very good looking pens.
