Something new for me

I recently finished turning a piece of platypus gum burl from George's Bits-o-Timber for a Berea Sketch Pencil. As I got down to the near final diameter, I noticed a large chunk was taken out down to the tube, along with a couple of other divots. So I used this as an opportunity to learn how to fill gaps with opal/CA and turn them down again. I think it turned out okay.

I think it turned out great! Too bad you didn't have a few more voids, that opal looks good. Lol

Cool Pen - the Opal is a nice accent. - Dave

Very nicely done !!!

As Bobby said .... too bad there weren't more opportunities for filling with opal !!

I like the voids... subtle and sweet. Great looking pen!

Thank you all for the compliments. I suppose I could have made some more voids if i wanted to....
