Sirocco pen kit from Beaufort, using oak and mahogany with maple veneer

I have been selling a fair bit of this blank so thought it was worth a turn. Came up beautifully with a hint of pink shimmer thrown in to the mix. Its on a retro kit and although the bog oak looks very dark in the pictures is actually rather dark in real life too :funny:

Some bog oak and more recent that never saw a bog

Great pattern from Steve good. I planed the Oak down to 12mm. I used Olsen 2/0 and No5 blades. The Danish oil from rustins gives a fantastic warm colour to the Oak. Part 2 coming soon. Golf Scroll saw. - YouTube

Somewhat of a unique blank. Half spalted sap and half heart wood. Timber is white oak, finish is a new CA called Glu-Boost. It sure shines up nicely.

I’ve not glued my fingers together with CA adhesive for far far too long or for that matter turned a pen so this evening I rectified both these things with some aluminium, black plastic, a piece of Brown Oak & copious amounts of CA glue.
