A keeper from the back of the blank-pile! Figured English Walnut

[philb]

Hi,

As with the great piece of Bocote I found in a previous thread, my tidying of blanks showed up a few English Wlnut pieces that looked as if they were fair standard issue and not looking like they had the figure this one turned out to have!

One of the first English Walnut blanks I've used that has proper figure throughout (like Maple) and some decent grain!

Definately a keeper as I dont know how long it'll take me to find a piece as great!

Phil, I love the pen. The English Walnut fits perfect with that pen. Great job. What kit is that?

Yeh It's a Statesman!
Trying to get a better pic of the figure, but really hard to show on the darker wood!

I loves me some figured walnut. That's a beauty.

I love the look of walnut with some good charactor. Very well done

Think I've found some more from the same plank or at least the same batch.
I'll get it posted up when I'm done, hopefully they'll be even better when turned!!
