Couple few turnings

[SDB777]

Offerings of three...



Here is a few parts from a Gold Jr. Gent I fountain pen kit made into a closed end. The timber is Bimble Box Burl(think I got it from BadDog Burls?)



The next one was a piece out of the 'shorts bucket' of Eastern Red Cedar...kit is a Sierra Trivalent Chrome/Gold from timberbits


And the last is a piece out of another 'shorts bucket' of Crosscut White Oak....kit is a Sierra Trivalent Chrome/Gold from timberbits



Thanks for looking!

Nice pens, Scott! I recently turned some cross-cut white oak, it quickly skyrocketed to the top of my Favorites material list.

great looking pens,

Thanks guys. White Oak is pretty under-rated. Seems the crosscut option wakes the grain up a LOT!

That cc white oak is really nice. I also like the bimble box.

Those all look great!

Hope I can learn how to do a closed end someday.Yours looks really classy.

Really nice pens Scott and the photos are just great. I wish I could get that good of a white in my background..

I use a piece of plain 110lb card stock paper as my background. It comes with some problems using the heavier paper though...and a bit of touch-up will be necessary in Picasa3 to get rid of the 'weird spots'.




Thanks everyone!
