so for some reason I'm not able to post photos like normal- so here are links to my latest two pens.

The section for the wood pen is different from the 'normal' for you....a little larger for an easier hold?



Well done on both!

Shawn's got wood.

yeah I guess.

The section on this one is 13mm thick - straight like the customer wanted - I prefer pinched or maybe with a lip.

Nice... please keep your wood to yourself.

Shawn - did you epoxy or CA the inserts in?

 

[watch_art]

epoxy.

Nice Shawn. The colors clash IMO with the other piece you used for the cap. Beautiful work!!!

I have to disagree with Joe. I really like the section. I think the contrast in materials makes the pen. Is that a CA finish? I'm thinking it's not, but with photos, it's hard to tell.

Cute little buggers.

What type of wood is that? The reason I ask is I have made 3 pens with what I believe is the same wood which I was told it was Walnut, but I want to make sure. Thanks!

Very nice pens. I like the wooden one.

Thanks!

No CA finish. Just lots of sanding and then finish sanding by hand off the lathe.

The wood, I was told, is black walnut. I have no clue though. Apparently the trees can have two sections of different colors.

Nice job, as usual! I like them both. I'd like to try a wood pen myself after I finally made a "decent" acrylic.
You seem to have mastered the kitless. Congratulations!!

Not the section to the wood, the Black insert in the cap.
