Bethlehem Olive Wood Baron

Bethlehem Olive Wood Baron Platinum.

Can you see the how this forum has influenced me? Who would ever thought that I would be playing around with wood with literally tons on solid surface materials all around me. Thanks to this forum I find myself trying all sorts of different materials.

Seriously I love working with BOW. Looks great and very easy to turn.
Picture is of same pen showing grain front and backside view. Thanks for looking.

A great looking pen. BOW is one of my favorite woods to work with.

Great looking pen Brian. I didn't even know what BOW was, till I came to this forum. It is everything you said it was. I hope your not eyeing that background, as a possible PEN! LOL

 

[Gary]

Looks great, Brian. I'm a big fan of BOW.

Awesome pen Brian! The combo of the BOW and platinum pen looks great!

 

[Evan]

I love this wood. Nice work! Platinum is a good match.

I used CA for finish and considering that I’ve only finish 5 other wooden pens previously using CA, I don’t think I’m doing to bad. I love finishing with CA it’s very quick, easy, and seems to be a durable finish. Something else that I pick up from this forum.[]

Nice pen, i like B.O., especially the smell while drilling, turning and sanding. i get alot of requests, it is about the only wood i never do not have a pen made from. The Baron is becoming one of my favorite pens.

 

[Gregory Huey]

Very nice job and you can,t go wrong with BOW one of my best sellers.

 

[jkirkb94]

Here is link to classifieds http://www.penturners.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3106

 

[Gary]

That's the same link that was just given to him.

Using either path works the same, but be sure to mention IAP in the Special Instructions block so you get the 10% discount.

 

[bajacrazy]

Gary, I knew it was the same link. I thought it would be a good idea that anybody that read this should read the classified so that they could take avantage of the extra 10% off if a member of the IAP.

 

[Gary]

You are absolutely right, Brian! Cheers.

Having never turned BOW before, and seeing it as I have now makes me wanna try it soon. That is one classy pen. Great Job!!!

 

[KKingery]

I agree with all the above - very nice work!

I see some pink color in the wood. I have never seen that in BOW. Is that my monitor or my imagination?

Your not seeing things. I have a small batch of BOW with this pinkish grain in it. []
