Serge,
Great Pens, I love the wood. Don't worry, next time you'll get it all. The grain is so striking...[]

Those are great Serge!!! I really like your creativity on the shape of the lower one!!!!

Real nice, Serge. Remember, never let a tree root get away! ;&gt
I cringe when I think of all the stumps and roots I've burned..

Nice looking pens! Follow the packrat moto: I take everything KNOWING it will be needed someheow in the future! Drives the wife nuts! I am getting ready to cut down an apple tree, hope the roots are useable like some of your have found on other trees.

 

[Rifleman1776]

'grevillea' ? Never heard of it before. But you are in Austrailia. There must be thousands of species of trees. Is the photo a true color rendition? Is the wood really that red? Very pretty and interesting stuff. And, yes, you should be lashed with a wet noodle for letting the rest burn. [] If you come across more, please offer to us poor Yanks for sale or trade. Oh, very nice job on the pens too. [^]

Better to collect dust in your basement than turn to dust in the ground[] Missed a good one, but I'm sure you have learned your lesson!

You can only save so much wood. Don't beat yourself up - at least you got a couple of great blanks from it.

Gee, Tip. Can't a guy (me) enjoy watching someone else perform a little self-flagellation? [] []

 

[WoodChucker]

Those are awesome, nice work! I'll let you beat yourself up, I see no reason too. []

 

[Bev Polmanteer]

Serge, I think I would cry, not taking more of that root! At least you got 2 beautiful pens out of it! I really like the shape of the bottom one.

 

[rtgleck]

However, you did manage to get enough for those two pens. So it's better than nothing. Regardless those are wonderfull looking pens.

 

[GregD]

That does it! I'm going out root digging. Nice job on the pens.

 

[jkirkb94]

Nice looking pens, Serge! Kirk[8D]
