I did not know this blank was going to be so nice. Shame it was on a cheap pen kit . Very happy with this pen :banana:13334567_10153163279957824_846611560_o.jpg

I like that, looks good, pen kit doesn't detract from it Gary.

Each to their own, and as long as you like it and are happy with it then you are on to a winner..

Excellent finish as well:thumbs:

Gary once in a lifetime you get a new respect for so many timbers one such is Red River Gum it is a remarkable tree yielding some of the most outstanding colour and strength. I have a friend a master of timber getting, knowledge and ability who shewed me an eight feet across felled tree of this timber in his farm paddock been downed for twenty years completely full of burled crimped deep red timber. Your pen gives an insight into how beautiful the timber this tree can produce. No two trees are the same. Thanks for showing.

Peter.
