Jr. Edward Unknown Wood

[qquake]

This is a new pen for me, called Jr. Edward, in chrome. It's a very large twist ballpoint pen, and is from Crooked Mill. I love it! I like all the design details like the clip, finial, center band, and tip. And I really like the wood with it. The wood is unknown, but very pretty. It smelled kind of sweet when I was turning it, so some kind of fruit wood, maybe? I'm keeping this one for myself! (I need another pen!)

They didn't have instructions for this pen, but assembly is straight forward.

The two cap bushings (12.5 mm) are the same size. One of the lower body bushings (10.5 mm) is smaller, and is for the tip.

I took over 100 photos of this one. I refer back to my pen photos a lot, to see how I did things.

Could the wood be bubinga?

It doesn't look like bubinga to me. Different color and grain. This one is bubinga.

Super classy pen! Well done! I might have to check that kit out myself
Not sure on wood (though I wouldn’t guess bubbinga, Ive never found it to smell sweet personally), but it’s pretty!
