modified slimline."longantler"

[ctEaglesc]

Trying something different, I have combined anter with shells, wanted something different.Used a short section of cherry burl
The components are from Woodturnings"fancy slimline"
I like the different style clip,allows for a larger barrel

Comments welcome

( I know I have to deal with the cloudy spots on the antler)

Very nice. I like the bark still on the antler.

Great looking pen Eagle, The pattern on the antler worked out real nice and very atractive front section. Good job.

Coach, I know the deer are different in Texas but I didn't think they "bark"ed.[] Nice job on the pen.

Very nice job Eagle

I like it, Eagle. Nice combination of materials. [8D]

Wow Eagle, that looks neat! The texture on the antler really gives it some extra character, and the coves you turned really flow nicely together. I hope to be able to do something like that some day!

Interesting design

Had to think a while before I figured out how you did it with the short barrel. At least I think I have it figured out.

Nice pen Eagle.

Nice look, Eagle.

Might want to try a darker rosewood for the bottom part. Might highlight your antler spots.

Just a thought! No charge, which could be what it is worth![]

Actually, deer do bark. But you are right about Texas deer, they are different. I can't say how in a family forum. [][]

Looks good, nice job!

Very nice Eagle, I like the Fancy slimline kit also.

Nice combination! I like it!

 

[Glenn McCullough]

how well done is that?!?! cool pen.

 

[Fleabit]

I like it. Nice color combinations. I like that you were able to keep some of the outer part of the antler in tack. Gives it some nice character.

Eagle great pen. The creativity you consistantly show us, keeps us begging for more.

 

[rtjw]

looking a lot better than the other long one.

 

[tinker]

beautiful Pen Eagle, can you swap the antler cap with the cap of the modified pen just for a look see? I think the dark wood would be a better compliment for the antler.
I know, that is like the knave giving the Knight advise.[:I]

As usual Eagle your pens amaze. Combination of materials is striking, and your creativity is remarkable. Keep them coming.

Eagle, the general color combination is beautiful and the form is outstanding. I don't care for the antler "bark" either. I think it detracts from the flow of the design and interferes with the color balance. I can see how others might like it for those same reasons though. Sometimes contrast adds to the whole sometimes it detracts! I guess that just reflects personal taste...... Beautiful work all in all! Though, of course, my general unqualified disclaimer is included herewith! [}]

If you are referring to the "bottom" od the Eagleized Euro,I could put it on ths one for appearnace ske but they are to different pens, One takes a Parker refill this one is based on a slimline.The top and bottom of this is turned at the same time with not bushing in the middle.No sense in trying as the size won't be the same.
