Fugly

You just need to have an off day once in a while to humble the spirit. Here is my off day.


The top pen is 1790 Hickory from a barn in Penna. Should have left it there. The center band is Elk and the bottom is left over acrylic - the good side.

The second pen is Arkansas Black Walnut with a box elder center band.

Sorry folks. I look forward to tomorrow and better looking pens. I need inventory for a Saturday show.

Wow. A pen with a hemorrhoid!

These should really head over the ugly pen contest.

These pens will make a lot of newbies very happy!

I fixed the hemorrhoid pen. Now it has stitches. It can't laugh because it hurts but can write with care.

Not practicing without a license are you?

The doctor has to mend what was wrong. What can I say. I have a certificate on the wall but I can't read it.

Now that's what we use to call "Butt Ugly"... sorta reminds me of a Baboons Buttock's... So, what kind of finish did you use...:biggrin:

I used Teak Oil and CA and then finished it with a dark HUT wax. I could have finished it with Medium CA with about 8 coats and gotten better results. I only have one piece of Arkansas Black Walnut, cross cut left. Should I try it?
