Afzelia Jr. Gents...

[bluntchisel]

Hi, Guys,

Amazing how different each piece of afzelia differs from the next! I turned this Jr.Gents rollerball earlier - and it's nothing like the Euro I posted last week. Lovely wood to turn and work with. Takes a polish, as well. This one is finished with three coats of BLO and CA. Sorry about the photo (Yes, Brian, it's a photo!)

I like it Bob, very good finish on it too .. Things are happening around here lately, you with the picture, the plastic haters turning plastic, Brian buying plastic and pretending he binned it ... I can see that mask coming off next ..

Nothing to be sorry about Bob that's a better picture than your scanner.
Thanks for making the effort.
Nice pen lovely wood.
Jim The plastic is in the bin.
I have just wasted 4 days off work by doing absolutely bugger all.
I went to shed and couldn't find the enthusiasm to do anything, I am just so tired all the time lately, I think I needed that rest.

LOL, Jim!!! Just shows you how ever-changing our beautiful world is, right? Off with the mask, you say? Yeah, that may happen soon, LOL!

Thanks, guys, for all your kind comments - much appreciated!

Bob,

I agree this timber has many faces some out of this world. Like your pen and your take on turning it.

Kind regards Peter.
