Played around a little in the shop today.. decided to do some pens again.. I'm low on kits.. only have a few slimlines left.. This one is from a Honey Locust I cut last summer and just tossed on the wood pile.. cut a piece off and discovered some spalting.. The pen shape is ugly.. I don't usually do bumps on my pens.. just felt like being different today.
This one is from a piece of vine I cut while clearing last summer.. got cute with it too... left the clip off & put a knob on top too.
I had to cut down my wife's work desk when we moved into the new house... had just a little piece of the plywood left over, tried it for a pen.. turned out pretty good.
Then this one is from spalted hackberry got off ebay.. it was really punky... had to turn a while, soak in Ca, turn some more, soak some more...
Last one was a Flame box elder I got off ebay also...
