The Morning After

[louisbry]

This is my first "The Morning After" pen following Ron McIntire's tutorial. It was a learning experience - pieces flew everywhere and I got glue all over my fingers. Great tutorial but I experienced a learning curve. I think my next will come out better. I made this pen using walnut, cherry and African black wood. Comments are always welcome.

I am not able to see it. I click the thumb and the screen goes dark, a black box opens in the middle of the screen and something in the box spins around, but that's it. Maybe because I'm on dial up?

Welcome to segmenting work I've found a box of disposable medical gloves from Wally World really help with the glue ups.

Your glue joints look tight and the woods combine together nicely. Well done.

My "morning's after" never look quite look that. Great looking pen. Nice job on the wood choices.

Thanks for all the kind words. Keith I will definitely get those medical gloves before my next one. The gloves I have (nitrite I think) stick to the ca glue.

Dial up must be the problem, what you describe is the image opening up. Perhaps wait a little longer if you want to see the image.

Great looking pen
