All three in Sierra kits with a CA finish (the photos don't do justice to the actual high gloss finish)
Hope you like them.

Stabilised crosscut spalted Cork Oak (normally a very white wood)


Stabilised spalted Beech burr (this wood was falling apart with rot more than being 'spalted' before stabilising)


Irish Wych Elm burr

Nice neat pens Kevin great to see your pens I was amazed at the cork oak I find it a monster to cut and work with a long time ago our local authorities planted a plantation of them with a view to comercialise the project never got off the ground I have collected some thinnings no success with them.The Beech Burl stailised well produced a neat pen, Like the Irish Wych Burl pen all three worthy pens.

Look nice Kevin.

Agree with the photography bit, never does pens justice. Although a good job of the photos.

Apart from the pine come is wasted there, should be cast and on a pen by now. :devil:
