As I told islandturner, aka Steve McBeath, all I can say is WOW! Steve did an outstanding segmenting job, not only on the pen, but also on the box. The segmenting, turning, fit, and finish are all top shelf, or as my Dad would have said, "From the other end of the counter."
The pen and box match really well and I was quite impressed. I do not do segmented work but I do have an appreciation for the amount of time, the patience, and the talent needed to get the prep work done. All of the work done on the pen and box is absolutely excellent.
Steve also sent a beautiful birds eye cedar burl blank. I look forward to turning it as soon as I pick a kit to compliment it.
Thanks Steve for what may be the best PITH pen I have ever received. We made it even with the Canadian postal uprisint. Ironically, the pen I made also went to a member in Canada.
Steve was gracious enough to send me some pictures to post. The pictures are very well done also.
Do a good turn daily!
