Segmented End Grain BOW

[rsx1974]

Used up a bunch of scraps of BOW.

With all the segmenting I've been doing lately I'm running out of scraps!

Gluing the 3/4 inch chunks exposing the end grain really brought out great color in this pen. Had to keep tools sharp to ensure it was round, but worth it.

Comments welcome.

very cool! What did you put between the segments?

You know when you buy grass plugs or small flowers and they are in a cheap black plastic tray. Well I found some at the road the other day and have been cutting them up for a black accent. Works OK, till I find something else.

Nice work and good recycling effort. The scallop looks fitting as does the thin lines of the recycled black plastic

That is one beautiful pen. I have GOT to get back into the shop and make some sawdust.
