i admire the beautiful pens you have there.....even more so is the confidence you have by posting such a close up! now that took some kahunhas!

Very well executed. Now, what did you use to cut the inlay opening? Be specific cause I am developing a desire to get a lazer! []

 

[WoodenRanger]

Thanks for the nice comments from everyone! I will say to Fred that no lazer was involved in any of this process. Just basic shop tools like (a router, band saw, ect. hint, hint), A lot of measuring, a lot of messing up, and a lot of refering to passages in the Bible like Phil 4:13 "I can do everything through Him who strengthens me", and of course reading from the wealth of info on this website.

Woody, exceptional work!! I'm not too certain I could locate a passage in the good book to properly convey my mumblings should I endeavour a task of this scope...

Beautiful work, someone is going to be very pleased to own one of these...
