Here are a couple of pens that I finished.
The first one is for my wedding guest book. It was made using the wedding white blank from Exotics. I really like this one and so does Therese my soon to be wife.
The next one is another Apollo pen done with a purple maple burl blank. I ruined two other purple burl blanks trying to get this one done. The final product came out pretty good. I am giving this one to my cousins wife who did our wedding invitations as a weddng present. I think she will like it.
Next is the last Apollo pen done. I used Tulipwood for this one. I really like working with tulipwood. This one is for my sister. She just got her masters degree and is also a pen collector.
The last pen is also for my sister. It is a cigar made with a deep purple Inlace Acrylester blank. At least I think that is what I used.
This was not too bad to turn. Crank the speed up on the lathe and take light cuts. The picture does not do it justice however.
Enjoy!
