Rookie Turning Again

[rraming]

It's been a while since I turned a pen but had inspiration from a lathe upgrade.
I have a few of these EDC click pens that have been laying around so I thought I should dust things off and have at it.
Wenge has never been my friend. Gluboost finish (two attempts ) but at least I made one.
Happy Father's Day!

But me and Leopardwood have always been buddies!

The finished pen looks great! LOve the finish and the components are among my favorites - smooth!

Another very attractive pen. Fussy timber, but you managed it well. Very attractive; thanks for sharing.

Looks like you and wenge got along just fine! Two nice looking pens.

Finished up the set today. I always seem to make a Bumblebee pen - nothing looks better than yellowheart and black
Others are bloodwood and padauk
