Tusk of Mammoth

[firewhatfire]

Wooly Mammoth tusk that was stabilized on a Jr Statesman Fountain pen in Rhodium and Gold. Difficult material to deal with. I had to wrap the pieces in gauze to drill as they were something else.

Excellent result! You're the "Bone Man." :wink:

I love the colors and the finish is wonderful. Very interesting material I am sure. I'll stick to itsy, bitsy pieces of Maple and Walnut.

Mammoth Ivory is difficult, but neat when works. It is still being found in permafrost.

Nice job showing the fine results with difficult (and expensive) material.

Wow!! Superb pen Phil!
If you hadn't told us it was tusk, we would be asking "what kind of wood is that?" Great coloring in that tusk.

Thanks yall. This one was tough to deal with. Lots of thin CA used along the way.

Magnificent Pens Phil,
I have heard on good authority, that you have been banned from the Museum of Natural History, in a last ditch effort, for them to protect their Exhibits.
You certainly like Breaking New, or Tough Ground, with your Pens.
Your Craftsmanship, on your Pens, has Demonstrated that you can Just about Turn Anything into a Pen.
Congratulations once more, my Friend.
Brian.
