Olive Burl Baron RB

[Dalecamino]

Olive Burl was marked on the blank . I don't remember which box I dug it out of , so can't say where I got it . Kit is Chrome Rollerball Baron from Ernie at Beartoothwoods . This was fun to turn too . Wish I had more .
Finish is CA per Ken Mayes instructions . Thanks for looking !

Beautiful wood. Very nice job Chuck. Looks like you have got the finish down now.

 

[Dalecamino]

Thanks for your help Kenny . Glad you approve !

Very nice blank, and a beautiful job bringing the pen to life! Great finish, and good photo as well. BTW, I'm betting you got the Baron kit from Arizona Silhouette, because I don't believe Ernie sells them. No biggie, but it might just send some new person on a wild goose chase if they try getting it from Ernie.

Shannon , thank you very much for correcting me . I did get these from AS . I've bought many kits from both vendors . Sorry everybody !! :redface:

That finish is really nice...you did a great job with the whole thing... I think the pen and kit match up really nicely. Thanks for sharing

That is very sweet! Beautiful wood and plating combo.

BTW I sure wish..... oh MAN do I wish Ernie sold the Baron. I've chatted with him about it before, I wish Berea would let him have them.

 

[Dalecamino]

Thank you Matt . Maybe someday Ernie will get them .

Love the finish and the shape.

great looking wood Chuck. That looks like it might be some of the Black Olive Burl that Nolan had a while back. Man, I wish I didn't miss out on that stuff.

 

[Jim15]

Good looking pen, the chrome goes well with that wood.

 

[bitshird]

Chuck, that is a beautiful piece of wood, and I really like the contour of the cap and barrel,

 

[workinforwood]

Great looking pen! I too was initially shocked at the Ernie having Baron's, lol. Was going to go look! Pen looks fantastic anyhow..it's a beautiful piece of wood and the finish looks perfect.

Great work on this one, Chuck!

Maybe if enough of us mention this to Berea, they might let Ernie carry the Baron and perhaps even the Olympia.

 

[papaturner]

Awesome pen....Beautiful!

Thanks Cav , and everyone else for the compliments . Cav I would sign my name to an appeal to Berea . Nothing against them or AS , but Ernie has been just amazing with my orders . Even when others had the CLOSED sign out , he was still there , and gets my stuff out ASAP !

Do I need to email Berea ? What would it take ?

Great looking pen with an awesome piece of wood. Nice work.

 

[wolftat]

Another great looking pen Chuck, I have some wood that looks a lot like that piece. I just can't seem to make it look that good.

Thanks Neil , I haven't been to my cold shop today , but I have a feeling it was in a box of blanks Johnnie sent me . I'll recognize his writing when I see some others . Want me to turn some for YA ? LOL ! :biggrin:
