This is a Panache pen that I had the kit sitting around for a couple years in storage. I had purchased it from Rockler sometime back.
I purchased a mix of about 15 Brown and Red Mallee burl's similar to the one that the pen is sitting on and this came from the cuttings of one of the burl's. The rings are Black Gaboon Ebony and Pink Ivory.
The Brown Mallee had that burl in it that I was afraid I was going to lose, but it held fast. When I gave it to my friend She commented that it reminded her of a fetus developing in the womb...The more I look at the pictures I'm starting to think She's right.
The pen was finished with CA and wet sanded to 12,000 grit. I wish I would have been on the site here before I gave it away to my friend as I would have liked to have taken better pictures of it and have learned how from the forums here. I had it sitting on my bandsaw and see that there was some dust specks on the pen.
Anyway this is my first thread so I hope I got everything right....If not please let me know. I did resize the pictures after reading the forum rules.
