You might want to check with shirt manufacturers. I think a pen made from this blank would rip the pocket right off of most shirts:) In all seriousness, that is one nice piece of wood. Will any of it be for sale?

That's gonna be a good looking toothpick!:biggrin:

I'm guessing that will end up as a vase...curious to know how much it weighs after you're done turning it.

It's going to be a center band for a really bigggggg pen.
I am about half way there----had to stop for today---back to it in the morning.
I have already filled two trash cans with cherry dust.

Gary,
Yes she is probably the best thing you have done in your life.
However, after talking a few times, I know you have done other very notable things.

However, why do you look so upset in the pic in the beginning?
Cause you knew you had to waste some wood?
