G'day! Long time!!
Still have been flat out in the shop making pens, and recently went to Tasmania for a much needed family holiday. Picked up some amazing Timbers.
This Tiger myrtle is quite beautiful. It is fully lined with Nikko ebonite to ensure the nib doesn't dry out, for strength and for premium threads. Finished with ca matte (basically sanded to 400).
I added a tiger eye cabochon in the cap finial.
The section is Nikko ebonite and I fitted it with a Jowo 1.1 two tone stub nib.
Thanks for looking!
Casey.

Absolutely awesome wood and a terrific job you did on the pen. I wish that that wood was available where I live.

Beaut pen with distinction and the Tiger Eye insert in the cap added excitement. The only Myrtle I have seen with these markings most always found with Morse Code like dashes all over making this pen a set apart item of strength.

Wow, that is a real beauty. The timber is very striking and you did justice for the final pen. Well done.
