PITH 360

[lorbay]

Well now that my pith partner (louisbry) has his pen I can now show it. The first pen is a Jr Gent which I thought was a little boring so I made the 360 on a Le Roi and also a 1st for me. I ended up sending them both to him anyway. This pine is the beetle kill pine that has infected most of our province. It is called dennem wood or blue wood. Both have 10 coats of thin CA and MM to 12000.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice, I really like the 360. Gives me a head ache thinking about making it but it looks great!

Both pens look great but my favorite is the 360.

360

I'm new so please excuse my ignorance. What is ment by the pen being a 360?

If you look at the second Pen you will see that the Blank is made up from a bunch of small pieces of wood that have been glued together forming a Haring bone pattern and that pattern goes around the pen a full 360 degrees. = HB360

If you look to the right column of the home page there is a picture and a tutorial of a 360 herringbone.

Louis you lucky dog..................

 

[louisbry]

I am the lucky one. I can tell you that they look even better in person. Either pen would have been great, but the HB 360 is clearly over the top. Thanks again Lin!
