Hey guys,
Some might think it looks like orange amboyna but this is logwood burl, my last blank, the nicest I had.
It didn't went too well, my mandrel wasn't really straight when I turned that one, the pen has some sort of little ridge in the light in a specific position. Also, it was quite a challenge to align the grain but hey I am being a picky bastard!
Nonetheless this specific burl is hard to come by and off to my burl pen collection it goes. Hand made pens are not meant to be perfect aren't they?
20ish coats of medium CA and clicky the thumbnails!
Thanks for looking,
Charles
