One for the Ladies.

Ti Gold Baron dressed in Pink Ivory with wood veneer inlays. Custom pink ivory finial. The pattern repeats 4 times around the pen so it lines up regardless of which thread you start on. It also lines up capped or posted. Its kinda ambidextrous that way :biggrin:

Any comments or critiques are greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful pen. Nice work. I need to learn how to do that.

 

[Rmartin]

Excellent to outstanding!

You hand cut the inlays? Any chance you could share your secerts?

 

[jskeen]

Superb work, gotta love a pen that lines up that way. Are the patterns inlaid into a solid blank, or segmented while square, (just out of curiosity)?

 

[Gagler]

Do you have a picture of the blank so you can see a before and after....very nice pen!

My apologies, I guess technically the blank is segmented not inlaid. I did not mean to mislead you. The pattern is cut with a scrollsaw while the blank is square then glued up with wood veneer.

I have the Dremmel.

Other than showing a mark of Genius and a level of skill and workmanship approaching perfection, I guess it's all right :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Good job. It definitely takes some patience and planning to have a finished product like this. Its also rewarding, too.

Great work.
