Bloodwood and yellow Ambonya burl.

Full credit to Texatdurango for design idea (Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!)

Excellent. I love that design.
The first one <b>I</b> saw like it was by cueman.
I'm not saying George didn't design his own as his eye is excellent.
This is the one I first saw -- I think it was back in December, 06:

I will steal the design of that pen. [:p][8D]

Mike, no need for credit, I simply saw a pen I liked that inspired me to try the style of construction. Actually, the pen that inspired me was this one... http://www.penturners.org/oldalbums/randbcrafts/100_4145r.jpg and he was probably inspired by someone and so on and on it goes.

A few weeks ago I checked out a book on pen turning at our turners club and talk about inspiration... wow, there have been a lot of snazzp pens made over the years and I have lots of ideas floating around in my head now.

Congratulations on a job well done, your pen looks very nice!

George
